Abstract:This study evaluates the power harnessing performance of a two-directional inertial pendulum energy harvester for miniature underwater mooring platforms (UMPs). This novel harvester can achieve a dominant rotational motion under different parametrical excitations. The two-directional energy harvesting performance is investigated through vibration platform experiments over rollpitch coupling excitations. The frequency ratio between the pitch and roll motion is about 2 to 1, the roll excitation frequency is over… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
