Journal ArticleDOI

A Review of Piezoelectric and Magnetostrictive Biosensor Materials for Detection of COVID-19 and Other Viruses.

TL;DR: The state of the art of research on biosensor materials for virus detection is reviewed and progress related to early detection of COVID‐19 (coronavirus disease 2019) is discussed, where remaining challenges in the field are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Power Optimization by Mass Tuning for MEMS Piezoelectric Cantilever Vibration Energy Harvesting

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored the optimal proof-mass-to-cantilever-length ratio for power maximization and found that an end mass occupying about 60% to 70% of the total cantilever length is optimal within linear response.
Journal ArticleDOI

Review of nonlinear vibration energy harvesting: Duffing, bistability, parametric, stochastic and others:

TL;DR: In this paper, a mechanical oscillatory mechanism is used to accumulate ambient kinetic energy, prior to the conversion to electrical energy through a transducer, which is referred to as vibration energy harvesting.
Journal ArticleDOI

A parametrically excited vibration energy harvester

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored a new paradigm through the employment of parametric resonance, which is not limited due to linear damping, therefore, the power output can potentially build up to higher levels.
Journal ArticleDOI

An auto-parametrically excited vibration energy harvester

TL;DR: In this article, the integration of auto-parametric resonance, as a form of resonant amplification of the base excitation, to further minimise this activation criterion and realize the profitable regions of parametric resonance at even lower input acceleration levels.
