Analytical Modelling and Optimization of a Piezoelectric Cantilever Energy Harvester with In-Span Attachment

In this paper, the location of masses and of a piezoelectric patch for energy harvesting reported onto a vibrating cantilever beam is studied and optimized. To this aim, a genetic algorithm is adapted and utilized to optimize the voltage amplitude generated by the piezoelectric patches by choosing a...
