Abstract: Vibration energy-harvesting devices are increasingly becoming more efficient and useful. The performance of such devices for energy harvesting from vibrations of civil infrastructure can be theoretically quantified, and ...

Abstract: This paper describes recent theoretical and experimental work carried out by CN Rail Research in an effort to improve the performance of conventional 100-ton freight car trucks through the use ...

Abstract: The integration of large infrastructure with energy-harvesting systems is a growing field with potentially new and important applications. The possibility of energy harvesting from ambient vibration of bridges is a new ...
