Journal ArticleDOI

Energy harvesting from low frequency applications using piezoelectric materials

TL;DR: This paper reviews the current state of research on piezoelectric energy harvesting devices for low frequency (0–100 Hz) applications and the methods that have been developed to improve the power outputs of the piezoesterday's energy harvesters.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Energy Harvesting Underwater Acoustic Transmitter for Aquatic Animals

TL;DR: This research developed and implemented a battery-free acoustic transmitter that uses a flexible piezoelectric beam to harvest energy from fish swimming as the power source and represents the first known implanted energy-harvesting transmitter demonstrated in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Design and implementation of a new autonomous sensor fish to support advanced hydropower development.

TL;DR: The new-generation Sensor Fish has been developed with more capabilities to accommodate a wider range of users over a broader range of turbine designs and operating environments and provides in situ measurements of three-dimensional linear accelerations, 3D rotational velocities,3D orientation, pressure, and temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydraulic and biological characterization of a large Kaplan turbine

TL;DR: In this article, an autonomous sensor device known as the Sensor Fish was deployed at Ice Harbor Dam to characterize the hydraulics under different operating conditions Nadir pressures varied by operating condition, with values decreasing with operating power (144-106 kPaA).
Journal ArticleDOI

A New Low-Cost Acoustic Beamforming Architecture for Real-Time Marine Sensing: Evaluation and Design

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that a system using a small number of hydrophones is capable of producing robust accuracy over a large band frequency in the presence of noise interference.
