The idea of harvesting ambient vibration energy to generate electricity has become a promising research field over the past decade due to the reduced power requirements of small electronic components. The motivation of ...

The fundamental idea of this research work is to present an approach to energy harvesting, which basically uses piezoelectric technology and is implemented in a shoe. It takes advantage of the energy that the user waste ...

Common solution for energy harvester device is project design according harmonic excitation around natural frequency matching excitation source. Environment vibration is random and wide band causing short time of resonance ...

The energy harvesting from oscillations of structures immersed in a moving fluid has received attention from the scientific community in recent years. Particularly, oscillations resulting from dynamically stable non-linear ...

Vibration energy harvesting has greatly expanded over the last few years. While linear vibration-based energy harvesting has received considerable attention in the literature, some current research is focused on the concept ...

This paper presents a Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of modal energy exchange and harvesting in a simple portal frame structure. We consider both horizontal and vertical support excitations resonant first with the first ...

Single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) mechanical oscillators have been the most common type of generators used to harvest energy from mechanical vibrations. When the excitation is harmonic, optimal performance is achieved when ...

This paper presents an application of a passive control strategy in a base-excited two-degrees-of-freedom portal frame support structure considering extract energy using a piezoelectric material coupled to a column. The ...
