Energy harvesting holds great potential to achieve long-lifespan self-powered operations of wireless sensor networks, wearable devices, and medical implants, and thus has attracted substantial interest from both academia and industry. This paper presents a comprehensive review of piezoelectric energyharvesting techniques developed in the last decade. The piezoelectric effect has been widely adopted to convert mechanical energy to electricity, due to its high energy conversion efficiency, ease of implementation, and miniaturization. From the viewpoint of applications, we are most concerned about whether an energy harvester can generate sufficient power under a variable excitation. Therefore, here we concentrate on methodologies leading to high power output and broad operational bandwidth. Different designs, nonlinear methods, optimization techniques, and harvesting materials are reviewed and discussed in depth. Furthermore, we identify four promising applications: shoes, pacemakers, tire pressure monitoring systems, and bridge and building monitoring. We review new high-performance energy harvesters proposed for each application.

At present, the most convenient and effective method for ensuring air pressure inside automobile tires being kept in normal state is using a tire pressure monitoring system to monitor the tire's interior pressure and temperature in real time. Aiming at the power supply problem of direct tire pressure monitoring system in automobile industry commonly, a new giant magnetostrictive vibration-power generation technology which generates electricity through collecting vibration energy in automobile is proposed. Based on the coupling effect of inverse magnetostrictive effect and Faraday electromagnetic effect, a power generation device prototype which uses giant magnetostrictive material as the core element is developed. It may be a prototype of giant magnetostrictive vibration-power generation module used to provide electricity to tire pressure monitoring system instead of button battery power supply mode. In order to accurately describe the relationship between vibration force (stress) and output voltage in the giant magnetostrictive vibration-power generation process, a mathematical model is established from the essence of inverse magnetostrictive effect. According to energy conversion process generated in the process of power generation using giant magnetostrictive material, the modeling process is divided into two parts. Moreover, in order to derive the energy conversion efficiency of giant magnetostrictive vibration-power generation device, a computing method of power generation efficiency is proposed. Experiment results show that the model can accurately describe the relationship between vibration force (stress) and output voltage. Amplitude of the output voltage generated by giant magnetostrictive vibration-power generator is proportional to the amplitude or frequency of vibration force approximately. For the giant magnetostrictive vibration-power generation prototype developed in this paper, its energy conversion efficiency reaches 32.6%. Research result provides an effective method for solving the power supply issue of tire pressure monitoring system. It plays a certain promoting role for the realization of battery-less tire pressure monitoring system.

“…Typically, the energy scavenging is done directly from the motion: good examples of that are in use of human activities such as walking, human's wrist movements, utilized to power wearable and implantable electronics. Piezoelectric materials are also employed in applications taking advantage of fluids flow, structural oscillations, or equipment (such as windmill blades) and accessories vibration (tires). Piezoelectric materials can also interact with electromagnetic (EM) fields, typically a magnet is used as a part of the design.…”

Summary The main goal of work presented in this manuscript was to design and build energy harvesters optimized for maximum electric power output, utilizing flexible piezoelectric cantilever beam structures available on the commercial market. The devices were constructed to simultaneously harvest magnetic field and vibration energies present in vicinity of current‐carrying conductors, such as those used in power lines. Gradient‐free Nelder‐Mead optimization algorithm was used to find geometries that maximized the power output from the harvesters, tuning them to 60‐Hz electric frequency of the AC current flowing in the energized line. The harvesters' electric load was also adjusted to assure the optimal energy transfer. The findings were then used to build harvesters. The optimization process allowed to achieve power densities up to 35.6 mW/cm3 from the constructed scavengers.
