A shoe-equipped linear generator for energy harvesting

This paper presents a linear generator used for energy harvesting system equipped in footwear, which scavenges power from back-and-forth motion during walk. Structure of the electric machine is studied, and sizing optimization by finite element analysis (FEA) is detailed. A prototype has been built,...

Zusammenfassung:This paper presents a linear generator used for energy harvesting system equipped in footwear, which scavenges power from back-and-forth motion during walk. Structure of the electric machine is studied, and sizing optimization by finite element analysis (FEA) is detailed. A prototype has been built, validating that the simulated and test results have a good agreement.
