This article presents the basic airfoil model with two degrees of freedom - the semi-rigid model, where its forced vibrations were considered, and the exciting force is the aerodynamic force, including its periodic changes, that is, gusts. Since the phenomenological model under study has a coupled form, its versions after decoupling are presented, which has an impact on the results of the final research. The airfoil model presented in this way was shown from the application side in the system of a simple energy harvester based on a deformable beam with piezoelectric elements. The result of the simulation tests is a preliminary analysis of the possibility of using the airfoil as a vibration generator for the energy harvesting system. Along with the application of the mechanical part, a numerical simulation of the electrical part was also implemented, related to the transformation of the voltage generated by piezoelectric elements into a constant voltage signal with a connected receiver with power consumption similar to the Atmega microcontroller with battery charging.

Over the past two decades, numerous research projects have concentrated on cognitive radio wireless sensor networks (CR-WSNs) and their benefits. To tackle the problem of energy and spectrum shortfall in CR-WSNs, this research proposes an underpinning decode-&-forward (DF) relaying technique. Using the suggested time-slot architecture (TSA), this technique harvests energy from a multi-antenna power beam (PB) and delivers source information to the target utilizing energy-constrained secondary source and relay nodes. The study considers three proposed relay selection schemes: enhanced hybrid partial relay selection (E-HPRS), conventional opportunistic relay selection (C-ORS), and leading opportunistic relay selection (L-ORS). We present evidence for the sustainability of the suggested methods by examining the outage probability (OP) and throughput (TPT) under multiple primary users (PUs). These systems leverage time switching (TS) receiver design to increase end-to-end performance while taking into account the maximum interference constraint and transceiver hardware inadequacies. In order to assess the efficacy of the proposed methods, we derive the exact and asymptotic closed-form equations for OP and TPT & develop an understanding to learn how they affect the overall performance all across the Rayleigh fading channel. The results show that OP of the L-ORS protocol is 16% better than C-ORS and 75% better than E-HPRS in terms of transmitting SNR. The OP of L-ORS is 30% better than C-ORS and 55% better than E-HPRS in terms of hardware inadequacies at the destination. The L-ORS technique outperforms C-ORS and E-HPRS in terms of TPT by 4% and 11%, respectively.

Purpose: The feasibility of harvesting electrical energy from mechanical vibration is demonstrated in the thesis. In the technique, energy is harvested from simply supported beam vibration under a moving mass using a thin piezoelectric material. Design/methodology/approach: The structure is represented by a basic beam of length L that is supported at both ends and traversed by a moving mass M travelling at a constant velocity v. The Euler-Bernoulli differential equation describes its behaviour. The dynamic analysis of a beam is performed by using three moving masses of (35.61, 65.81, and 79.41) gr each travelling three uniform speeds of (1.6, 2 and 2.4) m/s. A differential equation of the electromechanical system is obtained by transforming the piezoelectric constitutive equation and solved numerically by MATLAB. Findings: The results indicate that the numerical and experimental values for the midpoint deflection of the beam and the piezoelectric voltage are very close. Research limitations/implications: Using the COMSOL programme, the proposed approach is checked by comparing results with data obtained by the finite element method (FEM). An experimental setup was also built and constructed to determine the voltage created by the piezoelectric patch and the beam response as a result of the mass travelling along the beam. Practical implications: The results show that the dynamic deflection, piezoelectric voltage, and piezoelectric energy harvesting all increase as the speed and magnitude of the moving mass increase. The harvesting power vs. load resistance curve begins at zero, increases to a maximum value, and then remains almost constant as the resistance is increased further. The optimal length of the piezoelectric patch was obtained to be 0.63 m. When the length of the beam increases, the resonant frequency decreases, and at the same time the harvested energy increases. However, increasing the beam thickness has the opposite effect; whereas raising the beam width does not affect the resonant frequency but decreases energy harvesting. Originality/value: The most essential point here is the need to have correctly built scale models. They can provide a substantial amount of information at a low cost, accommodate a variety of test settings, and aid in the selection and verification of the most effective analytical model to resolve the actual issue.

In vivo biomedical devices are one of the most studied applications for vibrational energy harvesting. In this paper, we investigated a novel high-displacement device for harvesting heartbeats to power leadless implantable pacemakers. Due to the location peculiarities, certain constraints must be respected for the design of such devices. Indeed, the total dimension of the system must not exceed 5.9 mm to be usable within the leadless pacemakers and it must be able to generate accelerations lower than 0.25 m/s2 at frequencies of less than 50 Hz. The proposed design is an electrostatic system based on a square electret of dimension 4.5 mm. It is based on the Quasi-Concertina structure, which has a very low resonant frequency of 26.02 Hz and a low stiffness of 0.492 N/m, allowing it to be very useful in such an application. Using a Teflon electret charged at 1000 V, the device was able to generate an average power of 10.06 μW at a vibration rate of 0.25 m/s2 at the resonant frequency.

Vibration Energy Harvesting is being investigated for autonomous sensors and actuators that mainly utilize ambient and machine induced vibrations. Recently mechanical motion amplification is incorporated for improving power to weight ratio of vibration harvesters. The present study is motivated to investigate mechanical motion amplification characteristics with different configurations. The parameters investigated are motion amplification ratio, force transmissibility characteristics, weight of the electrical generator, effective damping coefficient achieved and linear nature of damping. Numerical analysis has been performed to compare important characteristics of device operating without amplification to that of with amplification with different configuration. The study has been concluded with comments on application of suitable type of amplification mechanism depending on weight/space constraints and desired effective damping coefficient.

The explosive growth of smart wearable devices has led to significant interest in harvesting human motion energy, especially during walking, for clinical and health purposes. The use of such energy offers a feasible way forward to significantly surpass the battery power limits for implantable and wearable devices. In this study, a complete system is designed to produce electrical energy from human walking then transfer the generated power wirelessly to the intended distance to charge a portable device without the need to substitute the power sources. Lead Zerconate Titanate (PZT)-5H has been implemented with customised specifications to estimate and harvest energy in one step. The obtained experimental results of the generated and stored energy using the proposed design agree with the theoretical results obtained through the calculations. Further investigations are required to improve the proposed system.

Although the study of oscillatory motion has a long history, going back four centuries, it is still an active subject of scientificr esearch. In this review paper prospective research directions in the field of mechanical vibrations were pointed out. Four groups of important issues in which advanced research is conducted were discussed. The first are energy harvester devices, thanks to which we can obtain or save significant amounts of energy, and thus reduce the amount of greenhouse gases. The next discussed issue helps in the design of structures using vibrations and describes the algorithms that allow to identify and search for optimal parameters for the devices being developed. The next section describes vibration in multi-body systems and modal analysis, which are key to understanding the phenomena in vibrating machines. The last part describes the properties of granulated materials from which modern, intelligent vacuum-packed particles are made. They are used, for example, as intelligent vibration damping devices.

In this paper, we consider a dual-hop relaying network exploiting fountain codes, where a source node and a destination node are single antenna, while a relay node is equipped two antennas. Moreover, the relay node is a energy constrained device, so it must harvest the radio frequency signals of the source to assist the data transmission from the source to the destination with full-duplex mode to increase double channel capacity. We evaluate the performance of the system through the derived exact outage probability expression over Rayleigh fading channels. Finally, Monte-Carlo simulations are performed to verify the theoretical results of the proposed protocol.

The performance of ultra-dense cellular networks considering both adaptive discrete modulation (ADM) and energy harvesting (EH) is investigated. Particularly, mobile users (MUs) are charged its battery from all ambient radio frequency (RF) signals. Based on the amount of harvested energy as well as the channel conditions, MU will actively choose an appropriate modulation scheme that not only maximizes the rate but also satisfies the quality-of-service (QoS). Moreover, we consider the spatial-temporal correlation at the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratios (SINRs) of base stations (BSs) which are totally different from work in the literature. Several important metrics are investigated such as, occurrence probabilities of different modulation schemes (Poc), coverage probability (Pcov), and achievable spectral efficiency (ASE). Finally, the results highlight the superiority of the proposed scheme compared to the conventional fixed modulation

The study compares different variants of aeroelastic energy harvesters due to the power they generate. For this purpose, models of devices with different stiffness characteristics were prepared: linear, nonlinear, with combined stiffness and bistable. Then, using the authorial procedure, analytical expressions that describe the power of each system were determined and the influence of individual parameters on this quantity was examined. By way of optimization, the system parameters have been selected in such a way that, regardless of the flow velocity, each of them generates the maximum possible power. Based on the results obtained in this way, the advisability of using a device with combined stiffness and bistable characteristics was rejected. Moreover, it was pointed out that the linear system would provide greater efficiency for lower flow velocities.

With the advent and more common use of wireless sensors, the issue of their power supply becomes really important. An interesting problem is the possibility of obtaining energy from the environment because this energy could be used to power remote sensors installed in any location and fully energy independent. The key question is the actual efficiency of energy conversion by a specialized transducer, directly affecting the area of possible applications of such an energy source. The article presents basic technical information on the construction and principles of operation of vibration/voltage transducers. Also describes the conducted tests of the behaviour of a selected transducer in controlled laboratory conditions (vibrator) and in real conditions of vibrations generated by a moving train. The results document the expected dependence of the amount of generated energy on the type of vibrations to which the transducer is exposed.

The paper describes the procedure of modelling and optimization of the aeroelastic energy harvester from the point of view of their operation at very low flow velocities. Using analytical solutions of models of different device variants, the relationships between their efficiency and flow velocity were presented. By way of analytical considerations, the conditions for high performance operation of the device have been demonstrated, indicating at the same time the difficulty in maintaining it at low operation velocities. As a solution to the problem, the application of external delayed feedback control was proposed and its effectiveness was demonstrated.
