Energy harvesting using semi-active nonlinear control

open access: yes, 2013
This paper presents the application of semi-active control for power harvesting using an electromechanical energy harvester. Two semi-active control strategies are proposed in the form of a time-periodic damper and a nonlinear cubic damper.

Energy harvesting from train vibrations

open access: yes, 2013
In this paper, linear mechanical oscillators are designed to harvest energy from train-induced vibrations. The harvested energy could be used, for example, to charge sensors mounted on the rail track for structural health monitoring.

Dual-phase self-biased magnetoelectric energy harvester

open access: yes, 2013
We report a magnetoelectric energy harvester structure that can simultaneously scavenge magnetic and vibration energy in the absence of DC magnetic field. The structure consisted of a piezoelectric macro-fiber composite bonded to a Ni cantilever.

Multilayer piezoelectric energy harvesting using single supply pre-biasing for maximum power generation

open access: yes
This paper studies the method of increasing output power of multilayer piezoelectric energy harvesters using Single Supply Pre-biasing (SSPB). In SSPB, it is important that the pre-biasing voltage be applied at the right moment.
