Assessment of Impact Energy Harvesting in Composite Beams with Piezoelectric Transducers

Piezoelectric energy harvesting (PEH) is studied in the case of a low-velocity impact of a rigid mass on a composite beam. A methodology is outlined, encompassing modelling of the open-circuit impact response in a finite element (FE) package, formulation of a lumped parameter (LP) model for the piez...
