“…Light, heat, radio waves, and vibration have been extensively studied as sources of energy harvesting. Among them, vibration has been drawing considerable attention because vibration energy has relatively high energy density, and is independent of the operating environment and weather [4]. Although many vibration energy harvesters have been studied, most of them operate at relatively high external frequencies (above 100 Hz) [5,6].…”

This paper proposes a bimorph piezoelectric vibration energy harvester (PVEH) with a flexible 3D meshed-core elastic layer for improving the output power while lowering the resonance frequency. Owing to the high void ratio of the 3D meshed-core structure, the bending stiffness of the cantilever can be lowered. Thus, the deflection of the harvester and the strain in the piezoelectric layer increase. According to vibration tests, the resonance frequency is 15.8% lower and the output power is 68% higher than in the conventional solid-core PVEH. Compared to the solid-core PVEH, the proposed meshed-core PVEH (10 mm × 20 mm × 280 μm) has 1.3 times larger tip deflection and the maximum output power is 24.6 μW under resonance condition at 18.7 Hz and 0.2G acceleration. Hence it can be used as a power supply for low-power-consumption sensor nodes in wireless sensor networks.

“…16 The EM option holds certain advantages over other VEHs. 16,17,19 The EM VEH has performed well in larger scale architecture; for example, a regenerative EM-based suspension simulation was conducted with car modelling, and a maximum 150 W of vibration power can be harvested at 90 km/h. 16,17 Although the EM VEH produces relatively low voltage compared to its PE and ES counterparts, the power and current outputs are still considerable high due to low internal impedance.…”

Summary Energy harvesting technologies are growing rapidly in recent years because of limitation by energy storage and wired power supply. Vibration energy is abundant in the atmosphere and has the potential to be harvested by different mechanisms, mainly through piezoelectric and electromagnetic means. Various architectural structures were also designed for several operating conditions, namely, resonance frequency and range thereof, acceleration, and energy extraction from several motions. The advantages and disadvantages were elaborated on, and improvements on ideas from current research were discussed in this review.

In this paper, it is shown that, for resonant electromagnetic vibration energy harvesters (REVEH) feeding diode bridge rectifiers, it is possible to quantify how close the ideal load condition is to the actual load condition. For this purpose, a new figure of merit, the REVEH exploitation factor (REF), is introduced. The higher the REF, the higher the REVEH exploitation. Moreover, by using the REF, a suitable technique for increasing the extracted power in a frequency region of interest is investigated. This is the frequency region where a significant energy content of the input vibrations is present. The investigated technique is based on the proper insertion of additional non-dissipative components (capacitors or inductors) between the REVEH coil and the bridge rectifier. Experimental results confirm the validity of the theoretical analysis.FIGURE 1 REVEH system employing a bridge rectifier 88 COSTANZO ET AL.
