Structural optimization of laminated leaf-like piezoelectric wind energy harvesters based on topological method

In this paper, a series of leaf-like piezoelectric elements are proposed by using laminated structure of polypropylene (PP) and Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) film to collect wind energy through vortex induced vibration. Topology optimization based on solid isotropic material with penalization metho...
