Quad-Trapezoidal-Leg Orthoplanar Spring with Piezoelectric Plate for Enhancing the Performances of Vibration Energy Harvester

To validate the potentials of unequal-length section-varied geometry in developing a orthoplanar spring-based piezoelectric vibration energy harvester (PVEH), a modified spring with quad-trapezoidal-leg configuration is designed, analyzed, and fabricated. A basic quad-trapezoidal-leg orthoplanar spr...
