Energy harvesting: materials, structures and methods
P. V. Malaji,Grzegorz Litak +1 more
TL;DR: The authors in this paper presented a special issue entitled "Energy harvesting: materials, structures and methods", which was inspired from the contributions and discussions made during the ICAEHT 2021 and a few more from invited papers, covering modeling, analysis, optimization, control, experimentation, energy management and application aspects of the harvesters.

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.

Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting
Alper Erturk,Daniel J. Inman +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a mathematical model of a piezoelectric energy harvesting system with a two-segment cantilever and a single-mode Euler-Bernoulli model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of a micro-electric generator for microsystems
CB Williams,R.B. Yates +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a microgenerator that generates electricity from mechanical energy when embedded in a vibrating medium, and the power produced is proportional to the cube of the frequency of vibration, and that the mass deflection should be as large as possible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design considerations for mems-scale piezoelectric mechanical vibration energy harvesters
TL;DR: In this paper, a non-optimized prototype low-level ambient MEMS harvester producing 30 μW/cm3 is designed and modeled, and a MEMS fabrication process for the prototype device is presented based on past work.
