Energy conversion from suspension system

Energy harnessing is the process by which energy is derived from external sources such as solar power, thermal energy, wind energy, kinetic energy, captured and stored for small devices uses. The ambient energy that can be harnessed to generate electricity comes from a wide range of sources but vibr...
