A piezoelectric cantilever with novel large mass for harvesting energy from low frequency vibrations

The piezoelectric cantilever with a large proof mass is a classic vibration energy harvesting structure. In this study, in order to harvest much more energy from low frequency vibration in the finite volume, a novel L type mass block is proposed and compared with a traditional rectangular mass block...
