Publication Open Access Electromagnetic vibrational harvester based on U-shaped ferromagnetic cantilever: a novel two-magnet configuration(Elsevier, 2024-09-07) 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 Optimization procedure of low frequency vibration energy harvester based on magnetic levitation(Elsevier, 2024) Royo Silvestre, Isaac; Beato López, Juan Jesús; Gómez Polo, Cristina; Ciencias; Zientziak; Institute for Advanced Materials and Mathematics - INAMAT2; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaPermanent magnets are widely employed in levitation-based vibration harvesters and sensors, but their operational range does not span ultra-low frequencies unless a mechanical resonator is added. In this work, an algorithm based on analytical equations has been implemented to design magnetic springs in resonant vibration energy harvesters operating at very low frequencies and the results have been comparatively checked and refined using 3D FEA (Finite Element Analysis). Particularly, a prototype based on a fixed ferrite and a mobile rare-earth magnet is designed, where the semi-analytical optimum solution was properly modified via FEA. The experimental induced pick-up voltage is characterized for ultralow vibrations (resonant frequency 1.7 Hz).
