Modelling of Cantilever-Based Flow Energy Harvesters Featuring C-Shaped Vibration Inducers: The Role of the Fluid/Beam Interaction
Flow Energy Harvesters (FEHs), equipped with piezoelectric active layers, are designed to extract energy from non-pulsating flows.FEHs featuring cantilevers with Trailer Adapter tip-mounted Vibration Inducers (VIs) are designed to develop a galloping motion.In this paper, we present the modelling of a recently introduced VI shape, featuring semitub
