Topology Optimization of the Thickness Profile of Bimorph Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting Devices
Due to developments in additive manufacturing, the production of piezoelectric materials with complex geometries is becoming viable and enabling the manufacturing of thicker harvesters. Therefore, in this study a piezoelectric harvesting device is modelled as a bimorph cantilever beam with a series...
