Enhancing the Performance of Piezoelectric Energy Harvesters Using Permanent Magnets
A cantilevered piezoelectric beam with a tip mass at its free end is a common energy harvester configuration. This paper introduces a new principle of designing such a harvester which increases the generated voltage without changing the natural frequency of the harvester: The attraction force betwee...
