“…The relative movement induces an electrical current on the coils, thereby produces electrical energy. It should be noted that the geometry resembles that of a half H-sectional shape employed in prior studies of Tacoma Narrows Bridge failure (Green and Unruh, 2006; Scott, 2001) and many plate girder bridges, for example, by Morgenthal (2007). The dimensions and mechanical properties of the prototype harvester are listed in Table 1.…”

H- and T-shaped cross sections are known to be susceptible to rotational single-degree-of-freedom aerodynamic instabilities. Here, such self-excited aerodynamic response of a T-shaped cantilever structure is used to extract energy, which is then converted into electric power through an electromagnetic transducer. The complex fluid–structure interaction between the cantilever harvester and wind flow is analyzed numerically and experimentally. To study the dynamic response of the cantilever and estimate the power output from the harvester, numerical simulations based on the vortex particle method are performed to determine the aerodynamic damping of the harvester section and to analyze the stability behavior of the section. The estimated aerodynamic damping parameter together with the mechanical and electrical damping parameters in the harvester are used to find the critical wind speed of flutter onset as well as the optimum load resistance. Wind tunnel experiments are conducted to validate the simulation results.

“… CI can be approached as group of sectors -this approach sees that certain sectors constitute the spectrum of CI (Howkins 2002;Scott 2001). We may consider that here CI is approached as 'just another industry' (Potts, Cunningham, 2008, 236).…”
