  • Abstract
    We propose a new structure consisting of a piezoelectric spring-mass system as a low-frequency piezoelectric energy harvester. A theoretical model is developed for the system from the theory of piezoelectricity. An analysis is performed to demonstrate the low-frequency nature of the system. Other basic characteristics of the energy harvester, including the output power, voltage, and efficiency, are also calculated and examined.
