Publication Open Access Electromagnetic vibrational harvester based on U-shaped ferromagnetic cantilever: a novel two-magnet configuration(Elsevier, 2024-10-01) Gandía Aguado, David; Garayo Urabayen, Eneko; Beato López, Juan Jesús; Royo Silvestre, Isaac; Cruz Blas, Carlos Aristóteles de la; Tainta Ausejo, Santiago; Gómez Polo, Cristina; Ciencias; Zientziak; Ingeniería Eléctrica, Electrónica y de Comunicación; Ingeniaritza Elektrikoa, Elektronikoa eta Telekomunikazio Ingeniaritza; Estadística, Informática y Matemáticas; Estatistika, Informatika eta Matematika; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; Institute of Smart Cities - ISCElectromagnetic vibrational harvesters are low-cost devices featuring high-power densities and robust structures, often used for capturing the energy of environmental vibrations (civil infrastructures, transportation, human motion, etc.,). Based on Faraday’s law, energy generation relies on the modification of the magnetic field distribution within a magnetic element caused by mechanical vibrations inducing an electromotive force (EMF) in a pick-up coil. However, the practical implementation of this type of vibrational harvester is currently limited due to the reduced generated power under low-frequency vibrations. In this work, an electromagnetic vibrational harvester is experimentally characterized and analyzed employing magnetic circuit analysis. The harvester consists of a ferromagnetic U-shaped cantilever, a NdFeB magnet and a ferrite magnet used as “magnetic tip mass” to enhance the magnetic flux changes under vibrations of frequency < 100 Hz. For this configuration, an experimental voltage of ∼ 1.2 V peak-to-peak (open circuit) was obtained at a resonant frequency of 77 Hz, enabling the subsequent electronic rectification stage. Additionally, Finite Element Method (FEM) is used to explore different design possibilities including the modeling of complex geometries, mechanical properties and non-linear magnetic materials, enabling the tuning of the resonance frequency from 51 to 77 Hz, keeping constant the induced voltage.Publication Open Access Optimized pattern design of a light guide using 2D ray-tracing simulation(SPIE, 2023) Medrano Gurrea, Mario; Jiménez Martínez, Unai; Tainta Ausejo, Santiago; Erro Betrán, María José; Arnedo Gil, Israel; Beato López, Juan Jesús; Izura, J.; Zabala, Silvia; Institute of Smart Cities - ISCWe propose the use of a simplified model for the analysis of the scattering elements used in edge-lit systems. By modelling their behaviour as lambertian light sources whose properties depend on the size and geometry of the scatterer and LGP, it is possible to simulate the illuminance map of the edge-lit structure using only 2D ray-traced simulation. This reduces the computational complexity in the optimisation process used to calculate the scatterers distribution to achieve maximum uniformity in light extraction. The results obtained by comparison between the proposed algorithm and a commercial software demonstrate the validity of the proposal.
