ABSTRACT
This paper describes the development of a new piezoelectric unimorph cantilever structure intended to improve electrical output power, compared to a conventional cantilever. The proposed structure employs a cylindrical bar attached to one side of a steel plate, which is a significant factor in forced vibration mode. The feasibility of the proposed methodology was assessed experimentally and theoretically. The influence of three different types of bar material (i.e., stainless steel, silicon rubber, and urethane), and bar position, on the output voltage were examined and compared with those without the bar. The optimal position and material for the bar were identified through experimental and theoretical analyses. It appears that the electrical output power of the proposed cantilever is about 40% higher than that of a conventional unimorph cantilever.
