Abstract

In order to enhance the energy-generating capability of a piezoelectric cantilever generator with given dimensions, the analysis models of piezoelectric cantilevers with different shapes were established. The effect of structural parameters as well as material properties of the piezoelectric cantilevers on energy generation was analyzed by using finite element analysis. The research results showed that the piezoelectric cantilever with a triangular shape has the largest output voltage and improves the output characteristic.
