Energy harvesting from vibration for low-power electronics has been investigated intensively
in recent years, but rotational energy harvesting is less investigated and still has some …

This work presents a novel development of the impact-based mechanism for piezoelectric
vibration energy harvesters. More precisely, the effect of an impacting mass on a cantilever …

Piezoelectric energy harvesting is an attractive alternative to battery powering for wireless
sensor networks. However, in order for it to be a viable long term solution the fatigue life …

The paper presents the vibration spectra of a twin-screw compressor driven at various
functioning regimes. The tests are performed to assess the potential of this rotary bladed …

This paper presents the design, fabrication, and characterization of a chip-scale
electrodynamic synthetic jet actuator with batch-fabricated die components. The actuator is …

This paper presents a cantilever beam vibration from fluid interactions with triangular shape
