An experimental validation of a new shape optimization technique for piezoelectric harvesting cantilever beams

The piezoelectric energy harvester efficiency depends on optimizing the cantilever geometry and tuning its natural frequency with vibration source frequency. Moreover, the effect of harvester parameters on natural frequency is vital in tuning the resonance frequency. So, a COMSOL Multi-physics finit...
