Design and optimisation of magnetically-tunable hybrid piezoelectric-triboelectric energy harvester
Abstract The demand for energy harvesting technologies has been increasing over the years that can be attributed to its significance to low power applications. One of the key problems associated with the available vibration-based harvester is the maximum peak power can only be achieved when the devi...
