Smart phone-enabled monitoring of acoustic energy harvesting for low power charging services / Nurliza Salim

This study investigates the capability of Acoustic Energy Harvesters (AEH) in generating electricity to minimize electricity consumption. In AEHs, piezoelectric materials convert mechanical stress into electrical energy. It generates electricity with the application of stimulus such as pressure or s...
