J045032 Development of Vibration Energy Harvester with Magnetostrictive material Terfenol-D : 1st report, Experimental Evaluation of Basic Characteristics

Abstract

In this study, authors presented the feasibility study of the magnetostrictive vibration energy harvester under the low intensity excitation condition, 0.71[mm/s] (RMS). The experimentally obtained power generation performance of the vibration energy harvester was quite low comparing with the previous authors' studies about the piezocomposite vibration energy harvester.
