“…Dong and Wen et al [19] developed a piezoelectric energy harvester which was employed to utilize the bending of the lead of a cardiac pacemaker or defibrillator for generating electrical energy. Gradually, piezoelectric-based energy harvesting methods are combined with triboelectric or electromagnetic technology to form hybrid energy harvesting devices [20,21]. However, such piezoelectric materials have issues such as depolarization, charge leakage [22], difficulty in achieving the impedance matching to maximize the output power [23] and other disadvantages [24].…”

The basic phenomena of a cantilever energy harvesting device based on iron-gallium alloy magnetostrictive material for low frequency were systematically studied. The results highlighted how the physical parameters, geometric structure and bias conditions affected the vibration harvesting capacity through a thorough experimental aimed at enhancing the vibration energy harvesting capacity through an optimal design. How the performance is affected by the configuration of the multi-layers composite beam, material and dimensions of the elastic layer, arrangement position and number of bias magnets, the matching load resistance and other important design parameters was studied in depth. For the first time, it was clearly confirmed that the magnetic field of bias magnets and electromagnetic vibration shaker have almost no effect on the measurement of the voltage induced from the harvester. A harvesting power RMS up to 13.3 mW and power density RMS up to 3.7 mW/cm3/g was observed from the optimized prototype. Correspondingly, the DC output power and power density after the two-stage signal processing circuit were up to 5.2 mW and 1.45 mW/cm3/g, respectively. The prototype successfully powered multiple red light emitting diode lamps connected in a sinusoidal shape and multiple red digital display tubes, which verified the vibration harvesting capability or electricity-generating capability of the harvester prototype and the effectiveness of the signal converter.

“…For flow-induced vibration-based solutions, both air [14][15][16] and water flows [17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26] can be exploited using piezoelectric transducers to produce electricity. Regarding water flow solutions, Allen et al [17] and Taylor et al [18] produced an energy harvesting eel, which consisted of a piezoelectric membrane placed in the wake of a bluff body to benefit from the generated von Kármán streets to produce electricity.…”

In this work, a semi-submersible piezoelectric energy harvester was used to provide power to a low-cost 4G Arduino shield. Initially, unsteady Reynolds averaged Navier–Stokes (URANS)-based simulations were conducted to investigate the dynamic forces under different conditions. An adaptive differential evolution (JADE) multivariable optimization algorithm was used for the power calculations. After JADE optimization, a communication cycle was designed. The shield works in two modes: communication and power saving. The power-saving mode is active for 285 s and the communication mode for 15 s. This cycle consumes a determinate amount of power, which requires a specific piezoelectric material and, in some situations, an extra power device, such as a battery or supercapacitor. The piezoelectric device is able to work at the maximum power point using a specific Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) H-bridge controlled with a relay action. For the extra power supply, a bidirectional buck–boost converter was implemented to flow the energy in both directions. This electronic circuit was simulated to compare the extra power supply and the piezoelectric energy harvester behavior. Promising results were obtained in terms of power production and energy storage. We used 0.59, 0.67 and 1.69 W piezoelectric devices to provide the energy for the 4G shield and extra power supply device.

This paper proposes a new concept to enhance the efficiency of the vibration energy harvesting via an intermediate booster. The boosters have auxetic struc-tures and exert extra stretching strain in two perpendicular directions. The concept is tested on a conventional cantilever beam under the base excitation. The problem consists of a cantilever beam subjected to a body load at low frequencies. An auxetic substrate is bonded to the beam with a thin epoxy layer, and the piezoelectric (PZT) element is attached on top of it. Two different auxetic structures are investigated in this study. It is shown that employing these kinds of boosters can remarkably enhance the performance of the energy harvesting system. The harvesting efficiency is numerically evaluated in different load amplitudes and frequencies. A parametric study is then carried out, and effects of different geometrical design parameters of the auxetic boosters on the performance of the energy harvesting system are investigated. Comparing with the case in which the PZT is straightly attached to the cantilever, it is shown that adding such intermediate boosters at low-frequency range can increase the extracted power by factors of 3.9 and 7.0 for the two proposed geometries.
