Available Kinetic Energy Sources on the Human Body during Sports Activities: An Optimization Investigation Using Cantilevered Piezoelectric Harvester Model

Previous work has shown that the impacts induced by human sport activities are one of the most relevant features to operating a cantilevered piezoelectric harvester. In addition, the optimal orientations of the simulated harvester according to body parts were investigated. In this contribution, we s...

description Previous work has shown that the impacts induced by human sport activities are one of the most relevant features to operating a cantilevered piezoelectric harvester. In addition, the optimal orientations of the simulated harvester according to body parts were investigated. In this contribution, we study the influence of the harvester dimensions on the simulated harvested energy. The results show that for a defined mass of active material and the optimal harvester orientation, a low-frequency harvester is preferred. Thus, the harvester operating frequencies, orientation, and location on the human body are explored.
