Journal ArticleDOI
A study of low level vibrations as a power source for wireless sensor nodes
TL;DR: The goal of this paper is not to suggest that the conversion of vibrations is the best or most versatile method to scavenge ambient power, but to study its potential as a viable power source for applications where vibrations are present.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anisotropic material properties of fused deposition modeling ABS
TL;DR: In this article, the properties of FDM parts fabricated by the FDM 1650 were analyzed using a Design of Experiment (DOE) approach, such as raster orientation, air gap, bead width, color and model temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
A piezoelectric vibration based generator for wireless electronics
Shad Roundy,Paul K. Wright +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a vibration-based piezoelectric generator has been developed as an enabling technology for wireless sensor networks, where the authors discuss the modeling, design, and optimization of the generator based on a two-layer bending element.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improving power output for vibration-based energy scavengers
Shad Roundy,Eli S. Leland,Jessy Baker,Eric Carleton,Elizabeth K. Reilly,E. Lai,Brian Otis,Jan M. Rabaey,Paul K. Wright,V. Sundararajan +9 more
TL;DR: This paper modeled, designed, and built small cantilever-based devices using piezoelectric materials that can scavenge power from low-level ambient vibration sources, and presents some new designs that can be tuned to the frequency of the host surface, thereby expanding the method's flexibility.
Book
Energy Scavenging for Wireless Sensor Networks: with Special Focus on Vibrations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an analytical model of a piezoelectric generator with an inplane gap closing converter for V2E power conversion, which is based on the basic dynamic model of the generator's bimorph mounted as a cantilever.
