Piezoelectric energy harvesting from heartbeat vibrations for leadless pacemakers
This paper studies energy harvesting from heartbeat vibrations using fan-folded piezoelectric beams. The generated energy from the heartbeat can be used to power a leadless pacemaker. In order to utilize the available 3 dimensional space to the energy harvester, we chose the fan-folded design. The proposed device consists of several piezoelectric beams stacked on top of each other. The size for...
متن کاملPiezoelectric Generator Harvesting Bike Vibrations Energy to Supply Portable Devices
With the decrease in energy consumption of portable electronic devices, the concept of harvesting renewable energy in human surrounding arouses a renewed interest. In this context, we have developed a piezoelectric generator that harvests mechanical vibrations energy available on a bicycle. Embarked piezoelectric transducer, which is an electromechanical converter, undergoes mechanical vibratio...
متن کاملEnergy Harvesting from Train Vibrations
An investigation is carried out into how much energy can be harvested from the vibration of a passing train using a mechanical oscillator. The harvested energy could be used, for example, to charge sensors mounted on the railway track for structural health monitoring. The dominant frequencies due to a passing train are determined for a specific train and speed from a recorded acceleration time-...
متن کاملActive AC/DC control for wideband piezoelectric energy harvesting
This paper proposes a simple interface circuit enabling resonant frequency tuning of highly coupled piezoelectric harvesters. This work relies on an active AC/DC architecture that introduces a tunable short-circuit sequence in order to control the phase between the piezoelectric current and voltage, allowing the emulation of a capacitive load. It is notably shown that this short-circuit time in...
متن کاملHarvesting Energy from Moth Vibrations during Flight
This paper presents the design, fabrication, and testing of a harvester that extracts energy from moth-body vibrations during flight. The target moth is manduca sexta, which has a payload capacity near 1 g, and a dorsal payload volume approximately 8 mm wide and 15 mm tall. Operating within these constraints, the energy harvester is designed to deliver 1 mW of electrical power at 1 VDC for gene...
