Vibration energy harvesting using single and comb-shaped piezoelectric beam structures: modeling and simulation

Of late, many have shown great interests in the area of energy harvesting or energy scavenging. Researchers have been venturing into methods that can generate acceptable level of voltage since decades ago. In line with the spirit of green technology, energy harvesting will be a major contributor tow...
