“…We performed the energy harvesting test at three different velocities such as 0.004, 0.0045 and 0.005 m/s. In previous studies of energy harvesting, the range of testing velocities were mainly chosen between 0-0.3 m/s [14], [28], [30]. However, in this study, the velocity values were chosen as low to analyse the systemic errors and leakages at low velocities.…”

“…The external circuit was integrated to the system to observe the harvested energy properties of shock absorbers. To obtain the optimum harvesting energy from the regenerative shock absorber, the value of external resistors of system was chosen as equal to the internal resistors of the coil and generator [14], [24]- [28]. The constant resistors were used as the load of the energy harvesting system.…”

“…Zuo and Zhang [9] recovered an average of 100-400W energy from the suspensions of a middle-sized car at 60mph on the good and average roads. Li et al [14] captured 114.1W energy on average from hydraulic regenerative suspension system with harmonic excitation at 8mm amplitude, 2Hz frequency and 7.5Ω optimal external resistor. Chen and Liao [19] designed a magnetorheological damper which integrated the dynamic sensing, damping and energy harvesting, and they harvested around 0.1W energy from this system.…”

“…For the last 25 years, shock absorbers have been a considerable issue in energy-regenerative systems. The different techniques were applied to the road disturbances to generate electricity [12]- [14]. As for vehicles, it is mentioned that around 10-16% of the fuel energy is employed to overcome the resistances such as air drag, road friction and vibrations [15].…”

Abstract-Shock absorbers or dampers are used to maintain the contact between the vehicle's tires and road surface, to absorb the vibrations generated from the road disturbances and recently they are used in energy harvesting. In this study, a hybrid regenerative shock absorber system containing hydraulic and electromagnetic (EM) damper mechanisms was designed to generate electricity. The energy harvesting was applied from the hybrid regenerative shock absorber using excited linear movement. A total of 0.25W for 0.004 m/s, 0.4W for 0.0045 m/s and 0.66W for 0.005 m/s was harvested using 80Ω and 2Ω external resistors for hydraulic part and for EM part, respectively, at 15 mm amplitude in response to the specified excitation. The mean power for 0.005 m/s was calculated as 0.003W for coil and as 0.56W for generator. The harvested energy was measured as low for measured velocities, however, the amount of harvestable energy rate or efficiency has increased with increasing velocity.Index Terms-Electromagnetic damper, energy harvesting, shock absorber, hydraulic damper, regenerative damper.

Summary Energy harvesting technologies are growing rapidly in recent years because of limitation by energy storage and wired power supply. Vibration energy is abundant in the atmosphere and has the potential to be harvested by different mechanisms, mainly through piezoelectric and electromagnetic means. Various architectural structures were also designed for several operating conditions, namely, resonance frequency and range thereof, acceleration, and energy extraction from several motions. The advantages and disadvantages were elaborated on, and improvements on ideas from current research were discussed in this review.

Summary Energy harvesting from pavements has been a topic of extensive research in the recent past. This domain has attracted not only the research community but also the industry and governmental authorities. The various sources exploited for energy harvesting from pavements and roadways are solar radiation, mechanical energy dissipated due to moving vehicles and pedestrians, geothermal energy, rainwater, and wind. This article presents an exhaustive and updated review of all potential means of energy harvesting from these sources. Following the introductory section, the article sequentially covers the energy harvesting methods and their research progress, materials, development of practical systems, commercial status, comparison of technologies, challenges, and concluding remarks. This study reveals that there is wide scope for further research and feasibility studies, which could lead to a wide‐spread implementation of the various technologies for energy harvesting from pavements and roads.
