Abstract :
This paper presents bistable piezoelectric model of energy harvesting structure. This system can generate higher power in wide frequency band in contrast to resonant monostable structures. The paper presents measuring of transition, and monostable and bistable behavior of loaded buckled beam. Measured generator was created from commercially available components. The measurement compares the monostable and bistable behavior.
