Abstract: This work proposes an examination into the static and dynamic behaviors of in-plane V-shaped microbeam under both electric forces and axial loads. The microbeams are actuated with two separate electrodes of uniform air gap ...

Abstract: In this paper, we consider the application of the piezoelectric energy harvesting using a portal frame structure of two-degrees-of-freedom. The piezoelectric material is considered as a linear device using a capacitive ...
