报告简介：
Energy harvesting is the process of capturingthe ambient surrounding energy and converting it into usable electrical energy.The concept of power harvesting works toward developing self-powered devices thatdo not require replaceable power supplies, for example, wireless sensors forstructural health monitoring, control systems, and wearable medical devices.Piezoelectrics have the ability that generates an electric charge in responseto applied mechanical stress, making it a suitable material for energyharvesting from vibration, which is abundant in environment. This presentationprovides a complete and system-level overview of the modeling and analysis ofpiezoelectric vibration energy harvesters. First it discusses the mechanicalmodeling of energy harvesters, resulting in an equivalentsingle-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) system. Then the equivalent system is linked tothe energy harvesting circuit interface through the equivalent circuit andimpedance technique. Lastly, the behavior of energy harvesters connected todifferent circuit interfaces such as resistive (REH), standard (SEH), andsynchronized switch harvesting on inductor (SSHI) are discussed, mostimportantly, the concept of power limit and the effect of electromechanicalcoupling.
