<p>In this study, an advanced energy harvesting interface called synchronized switch harvesting on inductor (SSHI) has been integrated with a piezoelectric energy harvester on a plate-like structure for multimode energy harvesting purposes. To the best of author’s knowledge, this type of energy harvesting system has not been studied in the literature before. Analytical solution has been developed to predict the power output of the harvester. Besides, experiments have been performed to validate the analytical model predictions and evaluate performance of the circuit. The experimental results showed that the SSHI circuit has three different switching behaviour, namely, no switching, single switching, and multi-switching. Power output of the SSHI circuit has been compared with AC-DC rectifier. It was shown that the SSHI circuit improves the power output of the harvester for the first two vibration modes of structure in the single switching case. The SSHI circuit acts as a rectifier in no switching case. Finally, multi-switching dissipates the available energy of harvester and reduces the output voltage and power of the harvester. </p>

“…In this case, the theoretical power limit of the energy harvester can be reached by matching an electrical impedance from the interface circuit with an equivalent impedance from the mechanical structure, which is defined as the electromechanical transformation of the ratio of force to velocity [10]. For fulfilling the broadband design target, most research efforts stem from the mechanical engineering community with a variety of available options, namely combination of multiple vibrators with different resonant frequencies [11,12,13]; fine-tuning of the vibration modes by adding auxiliary structures [14]; and the introduction of nonlinear dynamics in the vibrator [15,16,17,18]. It is important to note that both mechanical and electrical designs play a synergistic role in the two design targets of PEH systems.…”

This work studies a broadband graded metamaterial, which integrates the piezoelectric energy harvesting function targeting low-frequency structural vibrations, lying below 100 Hz. The device combines a graded metamaterial with beam-like resonators, piezoelectric patches and a self-powered piezoelectric interface circuit for energy harvesting. Based on the mechanical and electrical lumped parameters, an integrated model is proposed to investigate the power performance of the proposed design. Thorough numerical simulations were conducted to analyse the spatial frequency separation capacity and the slow-wave phenomenon of the graded metamaterial for broadband and high-capability piezoelectric energy harvesting. Experiments with realistic vibration sources show that the harvested power of the proposed design yields a five-fold increase with respect to conventional harvesting solutions based on single cantilever harvesters. Our results reveal the significant potential on exploitation of graded metamaterials for energy-efficient vibration-powered devices.
