A conceptual study on the dynamics of a piezoelectric MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical System) energy harvester

The mechanical behavior of a bimorph piezoelectric micro cantilever exposed to harmonic base excitation is investigated. The governing motion equation coupled with the equation of the output electrical circuit is discretized using Galerkin method and numerically integrated over the time. Two differe...
