About this document
Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting from Pavements by Jesus Said Garcia Rojas is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This article investigates piezoelectric energy harvesting from pavement deformation caused by traffic loads, modeling the pavement as a plate on a Winkler foundation. It derives explicit solutions for the dynamic response of the pavement under various moving loads and analyzes the voltage and power outputs of an embedded piezoceramic transducer. The study concludes that the plate model is more effective than the beam model for predicting harvested energy from pavements over soft subgrade conditions.
