description Among the various techniques of power scavenging, piezoelectric energy harvesting usually has more power density. Although piezoceramics are usually more efficient than other piezoelectric materials, since they are very brittle and fragile, researchers are looking for alternative materials. Recently Cellulose Electro-active paper (EAPap) has been recognized as a smart material with piezoelectric behavior that can be used in energy scavenging systems. The majority of researches in energy harvesting area, use unimorph piezoelectric cantilever beams. This paper presents an analytical solution based on distributed parameter model for partially covered pieoelectric cantilever energy harvester. The purpose of the paper is to describe the changes in generated power with damping and the load resistance using analytical calculations. The analytical data are verified using experiment on a vibrating cantilever substrate that is partially covered by EAPap films. The results are very close to each other. Also asymptotic trends of the voltage, current and power outputs are investigated and expressions are obtained for the extreme conditions of the load resistance. These new findings provide guidelines for identification and manipulation of effective parameters in order to achieve the efficient performance in different ambient source conditions.
