AbstractAbstract
[en] This study puts forward the consequence of poling direction on piezoelectric materials operating in longitudinal (d 33) mode. It has been mathematically presented that piezoelectric strain coefficients get altered due to poling direction. Further, this concept was developed theoretically to investigate the effect of poling angle on sensing and actuation capabilities of the piezoelectric materials particularly operating in d 33 mode. To demonstrate the effect, a cantilever based interdigitated electrode configuration has been considered with different materials including 0.3BaTiO3-0.7NaNbO3 (BT-NNb), K0.475Na0.475Li0.05(Nb0.92Ta0.05Sb0.03) (KNLNTS), Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–PbTiO3 (PMN-PT) and Pb[ZrxTi1-x] (PZT-5A) . In addition to poling direction, the effect of electrode width and electrode separation distance was also investigated. Upon poling tuning, enhanced was displayed only by BT-NNb and PMN-PT due to large difference between magnitudes of piezoelectric strain coefficients. On the other hand, in terms of sensing and actuation substantial increment was observed these two materials while the performance of PZT-5A deteriorated with increasing poling angle. An increment of 4400% and 87% was observed in BT-NNb and PMN-PT respectively in actuation while sensing performance increased by ∼2460% and ∼210% for BT-NNb and PMN-PT respectively. (paper)

AbstractAbstract
[en] A large number of works have been devoted to investigation of the influence of the piezoelectric properties of a material on the propagation of elastic waves [1–3]. Herewith, the quasi-static piezoelasticity model was mainly used. In the problem of an electromagnetic wave reflection from an elastic medium with piezoelectric properties, it is necessary to consider hyperbolic equations [4]. (paper)

AbstractAbstract
[en] A study on smart seats for railroad vehicles was conducted using piezoelectric (PZT) sensors. For this purpose, the concept of passenger friendly smart seats was defined, and a PZT sensor was selected as the optimum sensor based on this concept. Using PZT sensors, simulation tests were performed using a sub-scale model railroad vehicle. In these tests, the main functions of the smart seats were extracted and simplified to improve the effectiveness of the simulation tests. Based on the test results, the system for smart seats proposed in this paper was successfully verified using PZT sensors and the dedicated operation software for the system. This paper will contribute to the improvement of services in high-speed rail systems through advances in ticket checking tasks.

AbstractAbstract
[en] We analyze the first-order gradient effects in micro piezoelectric-bimorph circular plate (PBCP) power harvesters by including the first-order gradient terms in the energy density functions. Considering that the dimension of a PBCP is much smaller in the thickness direction than the in-plane dimensions, the gradient effects can be focused on analysis of the strain-gradient effects in the thickness direction through choosing the strains and the electric displacements as the independent constitutive variables. The paper has shown theoretically that the first-order gradient effects have induced shift in the natural frequency of a PBCP structure and resulted in a small change in the harvester performance.

AbstractAbstract
[en] Energy harvesting is a research area that has seen greatly increased interest in recent years. This paper presents experimental efforts to validate analytically predicted energy generating performance of piezoelectric harvesters for use in a pressure-loaded system. The energy harvesters adopted in this article are simply supported, partially covered piezoelectric unimorph circular diaphragms designed to capture energy from fluctuating pressure and convert it into electrical energy. The design itself has been presented in earlier work; however there is a lack of experimentally validated models in the literature for these kinds of harvesters. This paper presents experimental results showing that when key factors such as the bonding layer in the composite harvesting structure are considered, the experimental results coincide with the analytical predictions

AbstractAbstract
[en] This paper presents a system design for broadband piezoelectric energy harvesting by means of impedance matching. An inductive load impedance is emulated by controlling the output current of the piezoelectric harvester with a bipolar boost converter. The reference current is derived from the low pass filtered voltage measured at the harvester terminals. In order to maximize the harvested power especially for nonresonant frequencies the filter parameters are adjusted by a simple optimization algorithm. However the amount of harvested power is limited by the efficiency of the bipolar boost converter. Therefore an additional switch in the bipolar boost converter is proposed to reduce the capacitive switching losses. The proposed system is simulated using numerical parameters of available discrete components. Using the additional switch, the harvested power is increased by 20%. The proposed system constantly harvests 80% of the theoretically available power over frequency. The usable frequency range of ±4Hz around the resonance frequency of the piezoelectric harvester is mainly limited due to the boost converter topology. This comparison does not include the power dissipation of the control circuit

AbstractAbstract
[en] Nonlinear piezoelectric energy harvesting generators can provide a large bandwidth combined with a good resonant power output. In an experimental study, the influence of the piezoceramic material on these two parameters is investigated. The results prove hard piezoceramics to be better suited as converting element compared to soft piezoceramics. Their improved mechanical quality compensates for their low piezo-mechanical coupling leading to both, a larger bandwidth and a higher power output of the generator
