Generating electrical current from mechanically forced variation of the contact area of electrode/electrolyte interface underpins one of the scenarios of harvesting electrical current from walking. We develop here theory of an electrical shoe with a porous sole with an account of both convection of the liquid electrolyte under pressure and ion migration with transmission-linetype charging of el...
