Investigations begin with the selection and analysis of train vibration as an input dissipated energy source. Among 16 vibration measurements of train test runs, spectrum analysis of 4 vertical and lateral acceleration data having maximum vibration amplitudes are analyzed, and dominant frequencies of acceleration and displacement excitations are detected for each. As a distinct consideration, it is seen that input displacement dominant frequency is suitable for efficient energy harvesting and thus, it is also taken as tuning frequency of Midé piezoelectric VEHs (PPA-1011 and 2011). Last of all, existing estimation procedures in literature on piezoelectric energy generation, single DOF VEH modelling and optimum load are covered in detail and new methodologies with high precision that is inline with Midé’s experiment data are expressed in this research. Additionally, to better visualize and investigate the vibration behavior, ANSYS (PPA-1021) and SAP2000 (PPA-1011) simulations are analyzed. Finally, further models and research complementary ideas that arose from the conducted examinations are represented. vi ÖZET TİCARİ PİEZOELEKTRİK GÜÇ DÖNÜŞTÜRÜCÜLERİ KULLANILARAK TREN GİRDİSİNDEN TİTREŞİM ENERJİ HASADININ İNCELEMESİ Bu tez çalışması kapsamında klasik titreşim spectral analizi, piezoelektik ve enerji hasadı metodolojileri literatürde yer aldığı üzere incelenmiş olup, tüm bu alanlarda yeni perspektifler sunulmuş olmanın yanı sıra Midé’nin PPA-1011 ve 2011 ticari piezoelektrik güç dönüştürücü, güç çıktısının yüksek doğrulukta hesaplanmasına yönelik özgün teorik hesap yöntemleri aktarılmış olup, tüm bunlara ek olarak özgün 2 ve 3 serbestlik dereceli, ilgili 2 ve 3 dominant frekanslara ayarlanabilen hasat sistemleri önerilmiştir.

INTRODUCTION 1.1. Problem of the Thesis In this study, it is aimed to find a solution to a one common problem in literature that is being limited with the resonance frequency of the vibration harvester devices. In this perspective, device model configurations, allowing multiple frequencies due to multiple degrees of freedom, are researched. In early thesis research process, investigation of the possible low-pass, high-pass and band-pass passive electric filters and their mechanical equivalent mechanical filter models derived from force voltage and force current analogies are studied. However, inconsistent and complex transfer functions lead already existing mechanical filter design adaptation that is used as electrical wave filters in telephone systems in 1940s. Proposed mechanical filter model also resembles mechanical suspension models and these simplified mechanical filter configurations with single, two and three degree(s) of freedom (DOF) are investigated in separate and coupled arrangements for each DOF model. Moreover, it is also aimed to adopt Midé Volture piezoelectric vibration energy harvesters into the studied configurations due to their advanced power generation potentials and easy tuning options. It is seen that multiple mode frequencies allow to vibrate multi-modes thus, suitable for the vibratory sources having multiple dominant vibration frequency. In the light of all these findings, proposed models integration to train is further researched. For this reason, train dominant frequencies are evaluated and the models are selected and designed according to fit mode frequencies with the dominant input excitation frequencies. 1.2. Literature Review Ever since the beginning of the industrial age, being independent from man and animal power sources, especially at greater energy levels, was the greatest innovation. As the time passes by, the more technological improvements occur along with wireless networks, the more devices are in our lives thus, elevating the quality of life, production and work. In spite of the efforts to decrease the energy input of the electronic devices, 1 this ever increasing demand on energy surprisingly takes us to seek using existing power sources like human movement, known as kinesiology, similar to the energy source before industrial age [1–3]. In this millennium, the methodologies to harvest existing dissipated powers not only supply input energy to our sophisticated devices, but also contribute the current technological researches and developments. Among energy harvesting systems, one of the innovative research trend is on hybrid energy harvesters [4, 5]. Obeying the first law of thermodynamics, conservation of energy implies that the existing and dissipated power sources can be scavenged and transduce into usable electrical energy [1]. Up until recently, energy harvester (EH) need is arose by the dominant use of electronic devices, biosensors, human, structural and machine health monitoring, and wireless sensor nodes [6–9]. Single harvester generator or harvesting single power source, also known as stand-alone EHs, may produce low output powers to supply energy to the system. For sufficient energy feed to these vast varieties of applications, hybridization of EHs takes place to increase the limited energy generation of stand-alone EHs [10–23]. Harnessing multiple power sources or combining multiple generators for energy extraction in a single unit is called “hybrid energy harvesting or multimodal energy harvesting” [24–27]. 1.2.1. Comparison of Piezoelectric and Electromagnetic Generators EM energy harvesters (EMHs) generate power based on faraday’s law of induction, which equates the time derivative of flux to the electromotive force. As the scale goes down to microscopic level, the decreased coil area results smaller magnetic flux. On the other hand, quasi-static (ultra-low-frequency) movements increase the time intervals. Thus, both factors lead electromotive force to approach to zero. Apart from the fabrication boundaries of coil diameters and turns, theoretically EM harvesters are bound to be limited at low speeds [28]. Thus, EM harvesters perform better at high frequencies and PE harvesters outperform at low frequencies [8]. Additionally, at microscale level, EMH output voltage generally stays lower than the need to power 2 devices [17]. As a result, piezoelectric and electrostatic harvesters are more suitable for microscale applications, while electrostatic systems hold greater advantage due to the ease of integration to microelectromechanical systems (MEMs) [27]. Similar to EMHs, PE harvesters (PEHs) do not require voltage source while electrostatic generators require separate voltage source and more difficult in practice, and in contrast to EMHs, PEHs produce sufficient output voltage but at low current level [8, 19, 27]. Among these three types of transducers, piezoelectric generators are the simplest ones in terms of required components, transducer geometries and directly converting mechanical energy to voltage output [9]. In addition to PEHs, at macroscopic level, EMHs also provide simplicity in geometry, design and production [19]. In conclusion, PEHs are applicable for micro-, meso- and large-scales, while EMHs are easily manufactured and although they perform better at mesoscale, they are integrable to MEMs. As a result, abundant PE and EM HEH are reviewed and compared in the following sections. 1.2.2. Classic HEH Systems While tremendous amounts of multimode energy harvesters (EHs) are possible, there exist such PE and EM combination that takes the greatest research and development interest and turns out to be classic. As listed in Figure 1, these are composed of piezoelectric plate or patch attachment on Euler-Bernoulli beam and either magnetic or coil tip mass is surrounded by respective coil or magnets to achieve faraday law of induction [29]. In this chapter, PE unimorph and bimorph structures; comparison of rectangular and trapezoidal beams; four and two poles magnet configurations and comparisons; serial, parallel and isolated connections of PE and EM transducers in HEHs; fixed-frequency applications; and rarely studied broadband HEH designs are reviewed. (a) Fixed-Frequency Classic HEHs [not: 1.4.1.=(a)] Figure 2.1 and 2.2 shows the classic HEH designs and fabrications, respectively. As a brief summary, in 2008, Wischke and Woias researched PE layers on unimorph and bimorph cantilevers with rectangular and trapezoidal layouts in HEH. It is seen that 3 trapezoidal shape is not superior in terms of power generation and its fabrication is more complicated. Since unimorph HEH has greater tip velocity, EM transducer generates greater power. In contrast to unimorph design, bimorph PE part produces greater output than EM part. Upon this contrary output, authors suggest using greater tip mass (magnet) to reduce EM coupling [11]. Becker et al. begin to test HEH prototype in Figure 2.1. (C) and research further for its adaptation into synchronized switch harvesting interface [30]. Xu et al., both theoretically and experimentally analyzed PE and EM HEH. Theoretical optimum output power is 1.02 mW at 77.8 Hz and experimental value is 0.845 mW at the resonance frequency of 66 Hz under the vibration acceleration of 9.8 m/s2. Respective to single PE and EM transducer, output powers are 667 mW and 0.32 mW at 9.8 m/s2 and 66 Hz. Xu et al. proves that presented HEH generates greater power than single EHs [31]. Ali et al., investigated total power outputs of PE and EM harvesters in serial, parallel connection and separately. As seen in Figure 1 (C), the HEH has approximately 1000 turns and 4 magnets (25 x 10 x 5 mm3) with opposite polarization at cantilever tip. At the fixed input frequency of 76.2 Hz, total generated power is the highest when PE and EM transducers are isolated. While PEH generates 27.56 mW, EMH generates the lowest power output. Besides, single PEH output power is 3 times greater than serial connected HEH and parallel connected HEH generates 3 times more than single EM transducer [32]. As a recent study, Xia et al. not only investigates the classic HEH but also compared the performances of HEH and EMH (Figure 1. (C)). Throughout the experiments best HEH case generated the output power of 2.26 mW with 41% efficiency at 23.3 Hz and 0.4 g input excitation. and thus, greater performance compared to EMH alone. HEH not only owns greater output power and efficiency, but also enables broadband operation [33, 34]. In contrast to these findings, Sang and Shan et al.’s experiments resulted that HEH has the almost the same resonance frequency with the PEH. Sang et al., considered the valuable Classic HEH configurations and yet, similar to Figure 1 (C) with only difference of having lateral coil placement on both sides of magnet is researched for four different cantilever lengths. HEH with cantilever and PE layer respective sizes of 4 50 x 15 x 1 mm3 and 30 x 15 x 0.5 mm3, generated 10.7 mW while EM alone was 5.9 mW at 50 Hz with the acceleration of 0.4 g [21]. Supportively, Shan et al. also reported that HEH produced greater output power of 4.25 mW than single PEH of 3.75 mW at 40.5 Hz and optimum loads. Their design is slightly modified version of Figure 1 (C) and (D). The U-shaped magnet cage is fixed at the beam end and coil was fixed filling the gap in U-shape magnets during vibration [16]. (B) (A) (C) (D) (A) [20, 25, 26, 33–36] and (C) [30, 32, 37] are the most common ones and the tip mass can either be two magnets as in (A), or single magnet surrounded by coils as in (B) [4, 15] and (C), or lateral coil surrounded by magnets as in (D) [20, 35, 38] as well as modified horizontal arrangement [21]. Along with varying PE length on beam, PE unimorph (D) and bimorph (A, B and C) cantilever configurations are also possible [11]. Interface circuit is schematically indicated on (D). Figure 2.1. Classic energy HEH configurations are categorized and illustrated Ab Rahman et al. studied two and four pole magnet arrangements on classic HEH in Figure 1 (A) and (D), respectively (see Figure 3). It is experimentally proved that each HEH transducer with four-pole magnets produce greater output voltage than two pole HEH. When the input excitation is 1 g, generated output powers of four pole type PE and EM parts were 2.3 mW and 3.5 mW at 15 Hz, whereas those outputs were 0.5 mW and 1 mW at 49 Hz for two pole HEH [20, 35]. More detailed comparison of four-, twoand single magnet novel HEH performances are studied by Castagnetti and covered in part 4.2. [39]. 5 Figure 2.2. Classic HEH prototypes in test setup [25, 36, 37]. Figure 2.3. Two (left) and four (right) pole magnet arrangements on classic HEH designs [20, 35]. (b) Broadband Classic HEHs The ever-demanded ideal EH efficiently performs in wide bandwidth. In order to satisfy this demand, many researches have been conducted and still being investigated. These 6 include passive tuning either manually or with linear, non-linear, multi-stable and bandpass harvester structures; and active tuning which may result in negative power outputs due to consumed energy by active parts and advanced electronic networks [26, 40, 41]. Among these efforts, there are some classic HEH design approaches exist. Operation of an EH within wider frequency band is a very significant advantage in EHs. A few studied novel micro scale HEHs are also mentioned in this section for being broadband. Linear Classic HEH: In 2013, Ping Li et al. designed similar to Figure 4 (right) without fixed magnets. They analyzed their linear HEH performance under white noise excitement to model random vibration. Their sensitivity analysis indicated that the power generation of HEH dominantly affected by vibration frequency, damping ratio, coupling coefficients, which widens the bandwidth and increase power output as increases, and load resistances to achieve HEH impedance matching and maximize power generation. While PE load directly proportional to resonance frequency of harvester, EM load has almost no effect. The most efficient performances have the mean power levels of 0.44, 1.93, 4.2 mW at 77.5 Hz [17, 42]. Tunable Classic HEH: Wischke Masur et al. focused on frequency tuning method for HEH exactly shown in Figure 1 (A) and the picture of the protptype is on the left in Figure 2. In this technique, voltage is introduced to the PE layer. Applied voltage changes the stiffness of the generator and relatedly, resonance frequency. By matching input frequency with tuned generator’s resonans frequency, broadband operation is achieved. Electrode length’s effect on tunability is also investigated and found that greater than 10 mm PE beam length, tunable range almost saturates between ~50 to 60 Hz. To invertigate widest tunable range, fabricated HEH cantilever length was 20 mm with the width of 5 mm. Extractable output powers from EM part is 60 W, for PE part with parallel connection is around 200 W and with serial connection it is 215 W. EM transducer generated minimum of 50 W at 56 Hz wide operation band width around the range of 267 Hz to 323 Hz [25, 36]. Non-linear Classic HEHs: One method to achieve broadband operation is that harvester to be nonlinear so that the frequency response range between half power outputs can be widen [39]. Li et al. summarized nonlinear broadband mechanism such 7 that as nonlinearity increases, resonance frequency decreases and as the acceleration increases, half power bandwidth broadens, whereas resonance frequency decreases [4]. As inspired from classic HEHs in Figure 1 (B) and (C), Shan et al.’s design and materials are illustrated in Figure 4 (left). In magnet configuration, poles are oppositely aligned so that indirectly exerted force on the suspended magnet can yield nonlinear mono-stable HEH [15]. Two peak powers and modes of HEH are 11.4 mW at 8.373 Hz by EM and 21.6 mW at 14.83 Hz by PE transducers. At half peak power, the device band is around 7-17 Hz [15]. In Addition to HEH in Figure 1 (C), Xu et al. used same pole magnet aligned in front of the tip magnet (see Figure 2 on left) so that HEH can be nonlinear and operate at larger frequency band. Their nonlinear HEH prototype achieved 5.66 mW power output at 1g, this result is 247% greater than at 0.5g and at half power level (3 dB), the frequency band is 83.3% wider than PE transducer alone [37]. Recently, HEH illustrated in Figure 4 (right) is researched by Mahmoudi et al. and Ping Li et al. Their device mirrors the configuration in Figure 1 (B); magnets are opposite pole magnet arrangement is used and the moving magnet is shared with both symmetrically placed beams. For Mahmoudi et al.’s HEH, EM and PE parts respectively produce 39% and 61% of the power output. This EM transducer can increase power density by 60% up to 1035 mW/cm3 and bandwidth by 29% (155 to 220 Hz) at 0.9g with respect to single EMHs [29]. Ping Li et al. deeply studied modeling, tests, effects of nonlinear factors, loads, input frequency and acceleration on amplitude, and found that their HEH design both enhance as wider band with low resonance frequency and greater power output compared to linear HEH designs. In contrast to linear EHs, optimal loads differ with excitation acceleration. Apart from Ping Li et al.’s statement, their theoretical and experimental frequency responses show no significant band widening other than shifting the linear resonance frequency from 119 Hz down to 113.5 Hz. Experimental analysis optimum results with respect to input accelerations of 0.2 and 0.45g are 0.14 and 1.19 mW for EM generator and 0.085 mW and 0.5 mW for PE generator. The HEH peak power output is 3.6 mW at 0.6g and ~110 Hz having half-power frequency range of ~107.5 to 112.5 Hz [4]. 8 Figure 2.4. Broadband HEH by Shan et al. (left) [15] and Ping Li et al. (right) [4, 29]. On Shan et al.’s prototype NdFe35 magnet and PZT-5H ceramics are used as EM and PE transducer components. As a different vibration source and application on airflow harvesting system example, hybrid aeroelastic vibration EH is modeled by Dias et al. Their system includes an airfoil that is connected to fixed spring and damper at around mid-plane and starting that point, cantilever beam as seen in Figure 1 (C) is connected. Dias et al. propose 2 and 3 degree of freedom system dynamic modeling [43, 44]. Relatedly, novel aeroelastic HEH harvesting incident sunlight is proposed by Chatterjee and Bryant (Figure 16), and their research is covered in part 4.2.4., under ‘two-multi source powered HEHs’ title. (c) Overall Classic HEHs Comparision Table 1.1 is prepared to list the reviewed classic HEH systems peak power generations, HEH volumes, magnet masses, input excitations, input frequencies and half power band width ranges in parts 3.1 and 3.2. 9 Among classic HEHs, Table 1.1 shows that Shan et al.’s HEH holds the greatest power output of 33 mW along with broadband performance in the range of 7 to 17 Hz [16]. By considering the device volume, Ali et al. holds greater power density than Shan et al [32]. Once PE and EM power generations are compared, generally, EM power generations are lower than PE parts with an only exception of Ab Rahman et al.’s HEH with four pole magnet arrangement [20, 35]. Apart from Wischke et al.’s microscale HEH, the lowest energy generation belongs to Xu et al.’s device [31] and the lightest device is Xu et al.’s HEH with 9.8 g of mass [37]. 10 Table 1.1.

Novel HEH Systems While stand-alone systems are generally bound to be limited by one power source selection, multimode designs offer never-ending possibilities. Especially, when multisource powered energy harvesting concept is included as well as multimode HEHs, designs turn out to be novel. In this section, vibrational HEH novel designs are covered along with multiple vibration source harvesting, two and three multi-source powered harvesting systems in meso, micro and large scales. (a) Fixed-Frequency Single-Source Powered HEHs As a preliminary study, Reuschel et al. proposed axial flux and radial flux arrangements, where set of opposite pole magnets aligned radially in a radial coil house, designing EMH and PE cantilever modeling for the proposed arrangements. They announce to combine both transducers and analyze HEH as a whole system [45]. Harvesting from human motion is a demanded research subject specially to power personal electronics. Wei and Ramasamy studied harvesting kinesiology and it is shown that the HEH is suitable to feed personal electronics and charged mobile phone in experiments. The mechanical harvesting part composed of flywheel and in each foot fall, it runs the shaft connected to one-third of diameter of the actual wheel. Two piezoelectric configurations researched for shoe insole and it is seen that rolled piezoelectric plate is placed in shoe sole. It is seen that though this HEH is slow to charge mobile phone for being able to charge about 10% in 30 minutes, it is also found that starting from half- fully charged phone. the user can end up with 70% of charge with HEH, whereas without any harvester it would be 16%. Authors assume the potential over one million personal usage of their harvester. In this case, they foreseen the total power generation of 60,000 kW h [1]. Halim et al.’s unique components turns classic HEH into novel one. The main harvester body is almost same with the illustration in Figure 4 on the right. Novel pars are the parabolic top of the tip mass, which is intended to be moved laterally by the nonmagnetic ball action during horizontal input excitations. This mechanism also leads lateral PE bimorph displacement at center and EM induction with magnet attachment (see Figure 5). This design is aimed to harvest human motion, thus shaken manually by 13 hand at around 5 Hz during experiments. Resulted frequency responses of EM and PE transducers show that the first mode is at 816 Hz for both parts. Optimum power generation performances are 0.64 mW for EM part and 0.98 mW for PE part of HEH system [14]. (B)c (A) (C)c Figure 2.5. Halim et al.’s novel HEH design schematically represented in (A), fabricated components are listed in (B) and the assembled prototype is seen in (C) [14]. (b) Broadband Single-Source Powered HEHs Linear Novel HEHs: Castagnetti’s novel HEH is one of the most innovative one as well possessing 60 Hz-bandwidth. The design concept is composed of Belleville springs (B1 and B2 in Figure 6 (B) and (C)) and three different case of EM part for having a single magnet as in Figure 6 (A), 2 magnets (Figure 6 (C)) and four magnets configurations. The lateral frame in (A) is shown horizontally in (C), denoted by “F”. Experiments conducted for three cases of HEHs at 1g and 19.62 m/s2. Input acceleration of 19.62 m/s2 yield greater power outputs at resonance frequency. Among HEHs, the generated power of four-magnet HEH is 2 times of two-pole magnet HEH and 8 times of single magnet HEH. The four-magnet HEH configuration produced the greater power of 15.31 mW and enables broadband operation from 120 Hz to 180 Hz at 2g. Castagnetti also 14 reported their HEH is superior than commercial products like Perpetuum in terms of power generation and broadband width [39]. Bi Ci Ai Figure 2.6. The technical drawing of the Castagnetti’s HEH prototypes (A), Belleville spring scheme (B) and HEH scheme with two magnets (C) [39]. Non-linear Novel HEHs: Karami and Inman presented mono and bistable nonlinear thus, broadband novel HEH, as seen in Figure 7. As the horizontal input excitation is applied, then, the tip magnet moves harmonically. This oscillation yields EM and PE energy generation. HEH magnets are aligned with opposite polarization and these magnets’ distance is arranged such that the HEH can perform as mono or bistable but nonlinear unless the gap is set to 50 mm in order to see linear system performance. Additionally, the system behaves as linear at low input base excitation and nonlinear at greater acceleration inputs. The best power output results are close to 35 W for EM transducer and 1.5 mW for PE part at 1.7 m/s2. Worth to mentioned that linear dynamics of these HEH systems at low excitations [46, 47], is overcome by Leadenham and Erturk’s M-shaped PEH design [48]. 15 Figure 2.7. Karami and Inman’s design illustration and prototype [46, 47]. 1.3. Introduction to Piezoelectricity and Classic Methodologies for Output Power Generation Basic equations of piezoelectricity relate the stress (T) and electrical induction (D) with strain (S) and the electric field (E).

By assuming voltage coefficient gip as constant with the stress, the open circuit voltage is formulated in Eq (1.3.5). Further approximations in Eq (1.3.6-9) are set to relate 19 electrical voltage (V) and current (I) with mechanical force (F) and displacement (X, w) as shown in Eq (1.3.10, respectively [4–6].

Analytical Formulation Methods for the Power Generation-a Review So far, piezoelectric constitutive equations, property constants, main parameters and electromechanical modelling are expressed. Further on, in literature there exists many approaches for the estimation of the piezoelectric current, voltage, power outputs. Here in this sub-section, some of these numerous simplified, derived, approximated and exact equations for the vibration input at resonance frequency and for any excitation frequency are tried to demonstrated separately as follows: To begin with, it is essential to model piezoelectric energy harvester dynamic equations to derive output power. Therefore, as seen in Figure 1.4.1, lumped element mode of piezoelectric EH is shown in Figure 1.4.4 and force balance equation is given in Eq (1.4.1) and descriptive base excitation formulas in terms of displacement, velocity and acceleration are given in Eq (1.4.1a) [1]. Derivation of output power is also carried out in this study, see Section 2.3 for details. 23 Figure 1.4.1.

Hehn and Manoli’s proposed expressions for power generation [1, 4–6, 9]: Hehn and Manoli derive power output from the dissipated energy. Since the only dissipative element is damping equivalent, in this thesis study, output power Eq (1.4.1.2) is calculated from the damping energy as in Eq (1.4.1.1).

However, as seen in Eq (1.4.1.3), Hehn and Manoli’s power expression is different then the purely derived Eq (1.4.1.2). It is seen that for Hehn and Manoli’s output power expression to be equal to the exact derivation, keff has to be equal to “0.5”. In this thesis study, since effective stiffness can be calculated, Hehn and Manoli’s assumption for keff is not considered. In addition to Hehn and Manoli, many researchers followed the same derivations and keff assumption by neglecting the term “1/(2keff)” [1, 3, 5, 7, 10, 11]. meff 3 3 WB   e 2 P( )  1   2    2  m   e    2 2 meff n3 WB   e 2 at resonance: P(  n )  4  m   e  2 for maximum extractable power:  m   e  , Plim (n )  c m ,eff  ce  2meff n e  2meff n m  , Plim m ( )  eff n meff n WB  3 (1.4.1.3) 2 16 e WB  2 8ce For the studies conducted over the Mide Volture Piezoelectric EHs, in order to gain the damping ratio, given actual quality factor (Q) values are used as described in Eq (1.4.1.4) [1] for each selected product [12].

For this reason, by using given piezoelectric and substructure properties, new elasticity of modulus needs to be calculated for the whole cantilevered beam. In literature, Andosca et al. suggestion for the calculation of the elastic modulus of a multimorph beam and definition for the required neutral axes of layers and cantilevered beam are 27 demonstrated in Eqs (1.4.1.5-6) and used for continuous beam modelling [13, 14] I 1  N 3 b  hi 12  i 1  (1.4.1.5) 2   hs 2  hP 2  2 EI  E p Ap  z pN  z N      Es1 As  zsN  z N   12  12      hi 2   2    Ei Ai  zi  z N     12   i 1    N 1 1 z pN  hp and zsN  hp  hs 2 2  zN  E p1hp z pN  Es1hs zsN E p1hp  Es1hs (1.4.1.6) (1.4.1.7) where; E : Modulus of Elasticity of the Piezoelectric Cantilever Beam [N/m 2 ] E p1 : Modulus of Elasticity of the Piezoelectric Layer [N/m 2 ] Es1 : Modulus of Elasticity of the Substrate Layer [N/m 2 ] Ei : Modulus of Elasticity of the ith Layer [N/m 2 ] Ap : Surface Area of the Piezoelectric Layer [m 2 ] As : Surface Area of the Substrate Layer [m 2 ] Ai : Surface Area of the ith Layer [m 2 ] hp : Piezoelectric Layer Thickness ( ) [m] hs : Substrate Layer Thickness [m] hi : ith Layer Thickness [m] I : Area Moment of Inertia [m 4 ] zi : Neutral Axis of the ith Layer [m] zsN : Neutral Axis of the Silicon Substrate [m] z pN : Neutral Axis of the Piezoelectric Layer [m] z N : Neutral Axis of the Total Piezoelectric Cantilever Beam [m] Priya et al.’s addition to Hehn and Manoli’s output power formulation [9]: Simlar to Hehn and Manoli’s proposed power output in Eq (1.4.1.3), Priya et al. also proposed total damping ratio in dominator for the total power in the system. Consequently, according to Priya et al., Eq (1.4.1.3) is electrical power generation alone and to find the total power in the system, mechanical power dissipation that is converted 28 to electrical power eventually, needs to be calculated. These steps are demonstrated in Eqs (1.4.1.8-1.9) [9]. meff 3 3 WB   T 2 PT ( )  1   2    2 T   2 2 meff 3 3 WB   e meff 3 3 WB   m 2 Pe ( )  2 1   2    2 T   2 2 and Pm ( )  1   2    2 T   2 (1.4.1.8) 2 where;  T   m   e  at resonance: meff n 3 WB   e 2 Pe (n )  4 T 2 meff n 3 WB   m 2 and Pm (n )  4 T 2 meff n 3 WB   e 2 PT (n )  Pe (n )  Pm (n )  4 T 2 meff n 3 WB   m 2  (1.4.1.9) 4 T 2 for maximum extractable power:  m   e : Pe,lim (n )  meff n 3 WB  16 e 2 equals to Pm ,lim (n )  meff n 3 WB  2 16 m 1.4.2. Khalatkar et al.’s proposed expression for power generation [15]: Khalatkar et al. derives power generation in Eq (1.4.20) by using coupling electromechanical equation sets stated in Eq (1.4.8) [15].

This 29 means the squared part is required to be small yet it cannot be lower than 1 that means somehow right-side terms needs to cancel out. At this point, the only selected variable is load resistance; thus, it can be arranged to cancel out the terms as in Eq (1.4.2.1). As obvious, load resistance plays important role on the maximum extractable output and highly preferred subject in literature. Caliò et al. mentioned the result of the same derivation in Eq (1.4.2.2) [5]. However, during studies by sweeping the load resisting in future evaluations showed that optimum load value sometimes holds and sometimes differs than the calculated one. This is also observed from the given experimental values in Mide manual where usually, the optimum load resistance increases with added tip mass and decreased input excitation frequency [12]. 1  Abeam 2 33 RL   A  R   1  A. 33 L   A 33 Ropt  hp   h h piezo  p    hp 1 R opt = = A ii C p (1.4.2.2) 1.4.3. du Toit’s proposed expression for power generation [3, 7, 11, 16] du Toit follows the similar steps; however, does not use force terms representing electrical output (Eq (1.4.3.1)), then derives the displacement response instead and calls the common term as seen in the denominator in Eq (1.4.2) as the standard amplification factor and denotes as | G(iω) |, see Eq (1.4.3.2).  mwB  mz   c    z  kz  -wB  z   m   e  n z  n 2 z  meff WB 1  Z  nWB G (i ) 2 k 2 2 eff 1      2  m   e    (1.4.3.1) (1.4.3.2) where; z (t ) : Displacement of the System in Response to Input Excitation Input [m] Z : Displacement Amplitude of the System in Response to Input Excitation Input [m] G (i ) : Standard Amplification Factor 30 At resonance, standard amplification factor reduces to quality factor as seen in Eq (1.4.3.3). Eq (1.4.3.4) helps to enlighten about the half power bandwidth over the mechanical damping ratio. Half power bandwidth definition states that the frequency limits where the maximum power is reduced by a factor of 0.707 (1/√2). As the quality factor reduces, half-power bandwidth broadens.

Erturk’s suggestion on mass correction on lumped parameter model and optimum load resistance for the maximum output power generation [11] : Erturk studies transverse and longitudinal vibrations of cantilever beam and observes a correction need for the validation of the analytical results the experimental outputs. Correction factor for the Eqs (1.4.3.7 and 14) is suggested so that for all selected proof masses, the power generation estimation can hold. The only safe region where uncorrected lumped parameter validates experiments is that when tip mass is sufficiently larger than the beam mass. Derived correction factors for transverse and longitudinal vibrations are expressed in Eq (1.4.4.1) and Eq (1.4.4.2), respectively. Corrected lumped-model is given in Eq (1.4.4.3) and derived FRFs are listed in Eq (1.4.4.4-6). For FRFs, regarding the operation mode; in otherwords, transverse and longitudinal vibrations, related mass correction factor and respective piezoelectric charge (displacement) coefficient (d31 and d33) are used but expressed in main µ and diq terms.  transverse m / m  m / m m / m  m / m tip tip longitudinal beam tip tip   0.603 m / m   0.08955   0.4637  m / m   0.05718   0.7664  m / m   0.2049   0.6005  m / m   0.161 2 beam tip beam 2 tip beam 2 beam beam (1.4.4.1) tip beam 2 (1.4.4.2) beam tip where;  transverse : Transverse Vibration Mass Correction Factor longitudinal : Longitudinal Vibration Mass Correction Factor -longitudinal wB  t   z  t   2 mn z  t   n 2 z  t   n 2 d 33 V  t  (1.4.4.3) or - transverse wB  t   z  t   2 mn z  t   n z  t   n d 31V  t  2 2 35 z (i  )   2 wB (i  ) n 1   r  2  (1.4.4.4)  1  1  2 m r      2 m  1  ke 2  r   r  3  2   meff Req d iqn  2 2 V (i  )  wB (i  ) 1  1  2 m r   2  2   2 m  1  ke 2  r   r  3  2    Pout (i  ) wB (i  )  meff Req rke   RLn 1  1  2 m r   2  2   2 m  1  ke 2  r   r  3  2   2 2  (1.4.4.5)  2   (1.4.4.6)  Erturk also derives optimum load and defines dimensionless parameter, γ for unimorph beam as seen in Eq (1.4.4.7).

It is seen that proposed power generation formulations basics depend on either calculation of the power output over dissipated energy or solving displacement response and voltage from constitutive and electromechanical coupling equations. As a result, concluded power output formulations differs in literature and due to inconsistencies in terms of power and expressions among sources, a novel derivation methods depending on the same basis are covered in the following Chapters 2 and 3 for single and two DOF VEHs. 36 1.5.

Introduction Piezoelectric effect is well-suited to convert vibrations to usable electric energy. Physically, there are two approaches: Cantilever beams operated at resonance and piezoelectric material in stack configuration. Modelling approaches concentrate on lumped parameter modelling and distributed parameter modelling. In this chapter, lumped parameter modelling will be used with mass correction obtained from distributed modelling. As shown in Figure 2.1.1, we will use concentrated lumped parameter models of cantilever beam and stack piezoelectric models. During vibration, piezoelectric material generates electritiy in 33 mode in stacked configuration and in 31 mode in cantilever configuration, as shown in Figure 2.1.2. 38 Figure 2.1.1.

However; K, Cp and θ must be calculated (or determined experimentally) for 31 operation mode.

Derivations of Equations for a Novel Energy Harvester Energy harvesters are designed (or modified) to harvest energy from harmonic vibration. Generally, excitation is in the form of acceleration. Acceleration values amplifies vibration at higher frequencies. However, displacement values concentrate on lower frequencies. In this thesis, a novel energy harvester of 2 DOF is developed to design the higher 44 natural frequency to the maximum value of acceleration input; and the lower frequency to the maximum value of displacement (obtained from acceleration signal by dual integration). Physical model and lumped parameter model are shown in Figure 2.4.1. Figure 2.4.1. Physical model (a) and mathematical model (b) of a novel vibration energy harvester. Assuming (𝑧2 > 𝑧1 > 𝑤𝐵 ) and defining 𝑧2 = 𝑤𝐵 + 𝑤1 and using the addition force 𝐹𝑘 = 𝐾(𝑧2 − 𝑧1 ) = 𝐾(𝑤2 − 𝑤1 ) on masses, equation can be derived based on Eq (2.3.3) and (2.3.6): Equations for the first mass: m1 w1  c1 w1  k1 w1  1V1  kcoupling  w2  w1   - m1wB ( 2.4.1) V1  RL C p1V1  1 RL w1  0 Equations for the second mass: m2 w2  c2 w2  k2 w2   2V2  kcoupling  w2  w1   - m2 wB V2  RL C p 2V2   2 RL w2  0 45 (2.4.2) Defining 1  m11 ,  2  m2 2 and 1  K K , 2  K1 K2 we obtain w1  2 m ,1n1 w1  n12 w1 1  1   1 2 n1 w2  1 V1  - wB V1  V1  m11 RL w1  0 RL C p1 w2  2 m,2n 2 w2  n 2 2 w2 1   2    2 2 n 2 w2   2 V2  - wB V2  (2.4.3) V2  m2 2 RL w2  0 RL C p 2 In this system, 𝛼1 = 𝛼2 = 0, (𝐾 = 0) decouples both harvester. Any value of 𝛼1 ≠ 0, 𝛼2 ≠ 0, (𝐾 ≠ 0) creates a coupled energy harvester. Effectiveness of coupling spring will be investigated in detail in the next chapter. 46 CHAPTER 3: PRELIMINARY EVALUATION OF TRAIN VIBRATION DATA AND THE SELECTED VEHs In this Chapter, random characteristics of train vibration data is investigated in detail. In order to harvest the maximum input power, dominant frequencies, where the input vibration has power peaks, are determined by computing Fast Forier Transform (FFT) and Power Spectrum Density (PSD) of acceleration and displacement. 3.1. Introduction Recently, Turkish Government and Metro Istanbul A.S. are paying great efforts to set and run Turkish suburban trains on new metro lines. During train test runnings, vibration measurements from 16 different points on the train body and bogies are collected. Among these points, the data set having the greatest displacements belongs to lateral vibrations at the middle train body is selected as the actual train vibration input data and further used in this research [60]. The acceleration frequency generally varies in between 0 to 100 Hz. Among this frequency bandwidth, there exist frequencies preserving maximum energies and tuning harvester to these dominant frequencies enables efficient VEH by utilizing the maximum input power. Therefore, harvesters are tuned for these selected dominant frequencies. For the evaluation, commertial Midé - Volture cantilever VEHs are analyzed and selected products [61, 62] are tested according to derived modellings in Chapter 2 and these findings are compared with the conducted experimental results that are presented in Volture Piezo Protection Advantage (PPA) [59]. 3.2. Evaluation of Train Vibration Acceleration Data In this research, actual suburban metro train acceleration data is used as input excitation [60]. In this section, acceleration data that is obtained from the middle body lateral motions during actual tests is selected and investigated intensely. To better highlight the reason of selection, comperative evaluation of the vertical acceleration measurement sample at the at the third train bogie is presented in Appendix 3A. 47 To begin with, the effect of the difference in the harvester resonance frequency when tuned to acceleration and displacement dominant frequencies on the output power is researched while subjecting to the same input random acceleration. Furthermore, the methodology is as follows: First of all, among 16 set of train vibration aceleration measurements, the one having the greatest magnitudes are selected (see comperative evaluations in Appendix 3A). Selected raw acceleration signal belonging to the lateral vibrations at the middle train body is filtered through 8th order Butterworth low-pass filter with a cut-off frequency of 100 Hz and then integrated twice to gain the train displacement. After that, FFTs and PSDs of acceleration and displacement data are evaluated with a sampling rate of 300 Hz and dominant frequencies of each are determined. Last step of selection and further evaluation of the commertial cantilever VEHers that is suitable for tuning to the gained dominant frequencies [59, 61–67] is presented in the next section. Sample of filtered acceleration and integrated displacement data of 200 sec-duration are shown in Figure 3.2.1 and 3.2.4, respectively. The difference of the dominant frequencies of acceleration and displacement are clearly seen in respective FFTs in Figure 3.2.2, 5 and Welch PSDs in Figure 3.2.3,6. In Appendix 3A, FFTs, PSDs, Welch PSDs, root mean squares (RMSs) and MovingRMSs evaluation results and related MATLAB codes are presented for acceleration and displacement signals[63, 65, 66, 68]. Decision on the dominant frequency is gathered from the Welch PSDs since unexpected rare shock frequencies can mislead as in Figure Y.10 in Appendix 3A. Figure 3.2.3 and 6 reveals that the acceleration and displacement respective peaks occur around 87.9 Hz and 5.9 Hz with half-power bandwidth –at which the magnitude drops by 3dB- of 28 Hz and 9.3 Hz. These dominant frequencies are further taken as the possible resonance frequencies of the energy harvester [68–79]. 48 Figure 3.2.1.

Evaluation of Selected VEHs to Validate the Mathematical Model In order totest the mathematical model derived in Chapter 2, an actual cantilever beam type piezoelectricVEH is chosen from the Volture PPA catalog [59]. This manual informs users about the RMS power, RMS voltage and RMS current outputs, optimum loads and peak to peak tip displacements only at the middle clamp location when subjected to harmonic excitation with varying acceleration amplitude and frequencies of the PPA models when tuned to input excitation frequency. Here, validation test conducted for PPA 1001 when sinusoidal acceleration input -having 1g amplitude at 60 - is applied. The expected RMS power and voltage outputs are 1.8 mW and 7.1 V, respectively when load resistance of 28.6 kΩ is used. The used parameters to run the derived mathematical model are taken from the datasheet and as follows: Cp = 100 nF, 1.7g of proof-mass, 2.8 g of beam mass, harvester length (L), width (b) and thickness (h) of 36 mm, 20.8 mm and 0.15 mm, respectively. For the calculation of 𝜃= 𝑑31 .𝑐11 .𝑏.ℎ 𝐿 as in Eq (2.3.5) piezoelectric parameters are taken as d31=-220 pm/V and c11=67 GPa. Damping ratio isobtained from the given electrical and mechanical quality factors [59]. Recalling the constitutive mathematical model equation in Eq (2.3.6): w  2n w  n 2 w - V  - wB (2.3.6) V  RL C pV  RL w  0 is converted to state space form by defining the state variables as relative displacement (w), relative acceleration (𝑤̇ ) and output voltage (V): y1  w , y2  w , y3  V (3.3.1) Then state equations of the energy harvester become: y1  w  y 2 y 2  w    wB  2n y 2  n 2 y1   y3 y3  V  (3.3.2) 1  y2  y3 Cp RL C p Matlab function and code to solve this equation sets are given in Appendix 3A. 52 Instantaneous power input due to acceleration input can be calculated as Pinst (t)  F (t ).z(t )  meff wB .z(t ) where;  F (t )  m eff (3.2.3) wB , z=w  wB  z=y2  wB  wB is the relative acceleration excitation to the base of energy harvester. z is the absolute velocity of the moving mass, and it can be obtained by z=y2  wB . wB is the speed obtained from base excitation acceleration due to integration with MATLAB program in Appendix 3A. However, acceleration data must be high passfiltered (with approximately 10% of Nyquist Butterworth high-pass) and then “cumsum()*dt” must be used to btain velocity data, as shown in Appendix 3A [9]. Instantaneous power output can be obtained from power relation as Pout ,inst (t )  V 2 (t ) RL (3.2.4) From Eqs (3.2.3-4), efficiency of conversion can be obtained from the output to input power ratio. Likewise, overall value for efficiency can be evaluated from the RMS power ratios as notedin Eq (3.2.5).  Pout Pin  PRMS ,out  Alternatively,   PRMS ,in  (3.2.5)    With these investigations, RMS power output of 1.8 mW, RMS voltage output of 6.37 V is obtained for PPA-1001. Compared to the experimental measurement outputs of 1.8 mW for RMS power and 7.1 V for RMS voltage, it is seen that there is some discrepancy of order about 10%. The reason of the difference with mathematical and experimental results is most probably due to the θ parameter used in the mathematical model but changes with geometry and frequency between -97 to -320 pC/N [7-8]. Detailed data values with geometric dimensions about PPA 1001, and PPA1011 is given in Appendix 3B. 53 CHAPTER 4: PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS OF CLASSICAL AND NOVEL HARVESTERS First three harvesters are setup corresponding to peak frequencies obtained from train vibration acceleration and displacement FFTs and Welch PSDs. From catalog [59], three EHs are selected and parameters are setup so that the devices are tuned to these peak frequencies of 80 Hz, 21 Hz and 7 Hz. These tuned devices performance analyses are conducted independently and also for decoupled and coupled 2 DOF array configurations. 4.1. Introduction In this chapter, explained single and two DOF uncoupled and coupled cantilever beam piezoelectric EHs performance evaluations for output power and efficiency are conducted by following the derived equations in Chapter 2 with real train acceleration and displacement excitation input as characterized in Chapter 3. Through out the analysis in Chapter 2, the peak frequencies in welch PSDs of acceleration and displacement are found as 77 Hz and 21 Hz; and 7 Hz and 21 Hz, respectively. As a start, these three dominant frequencies: 77 Hz, 21 Hz and 7 Hz are taken as the resonance frequencies of harvester devices and selected all two types of Volture-PPA1011 and 2011 VEH models are tuned to these frequencies by adding the respective proof masses of 77 Hz, 21 Hz and 7 Hz. Parameters used in derivations are also set for the corresponding resonance frequencies and RMS power outputs and RMS voltage outputs are evaluated in the scope of single DOF individually. Two DOF designs include configurations of the decoupled array and the novel coupled array. For the decoupled array, the combination of two individual cantilever piezoelectric VEHs is considered by only connecting to the same base frame while having free end and the best combination according to power generation is determined. As described in Section 2.4, the final configuration is the developed novel design 54 consists of two piezoelectric transducer beams and additional connection at the tips with a spring while also sharing the same base frame. Since the array is connected at the end, they become coupled. The key point of both two DOF device models is to harvest vibration input mode than one frequency range and thus, electrical equivalent frequency response behaviour would be the same with band pass filter. This novel harvester is evaluated while having natural frequency combinations of 7 Hz and 21 Hz; 7 Hz and 77 Hz; and 20 Hz and 77 Hz so that those would respond at most to displacement and acceleration inputs. The last component affecting the natural frequency is the coupler in other words, the spring. Thus, spring stiffness K. Relating to the indicated key point, these coupling enables broadband energy harvesting and regarding this aim, mentioned components are explored for the maximum total power and voltage outputs, and efficiency in the following sections. 4.2. Performance Evaluation of Tuned Single DOF Energy Harvesters Midé Volture PPA-1011 piezoelectric VEH model is selected among other models for having low equivalent stiffness value [59]. Tuning and performance evaluation are conducted for two clap locations: -6.0 and 0. Claping at -6.0 enables to use the full range of piezoelectric patch. On the other hand, since stiffness increases as the length decreases, at clamp 0 location, the natural frequency is greater. This requires greater proof mass, which eventually increases the output power. PPA-1001 specifications at clamp -6.0 and 0 are listed in Table 4.2.1: 55 Table 4.2.1. The piezoelectric, unique and common piezo patch and transducer properties for the chosen PPA-1011 at -6.0 and 0 clamp locations [59]. at Clamp -6.0 267.45 N/m at Clamp 0 446.28 N/m at Clamp -6.0 0.645 g at Clamp 0 0.614 g at Clamp -6.0 46 mm at Clamp 0 40 mm Piezo Width, bp 20.8 mm Piezo Thickness, hp 0.15 mm Equivalent Stifness, Km Effective Mass, m Piezo Length , Lp Piezoelectric Charge (Displacement) Coefficient, d31 𝐸 Piezoelectric Elastic Modulus, 𝑐11 Capacitance, Cp -170 pm/V 67 GPa 100 nF In consideration of vertical acceleration dominant frequencies, the evaluation of the required proof masses in order to tune 7 Hz, 21 Hz and 77 Hz are represented in Eq 4.2.1 to 4.2.1c for clamp -6.0 location, and in Eq 4.2.1d to 4.2.1e for clamp 0 location. For the lowest frequency of 7 Hz, required tip mass for tuning is extremely high. As a result, tuning mass for 7 Hz is considered theoretically as in Eq 4.2.1a and 4.2.1d. On the other hand, referring 𝑘𝑒𝑓𝑓 = 3𝐸𝐼⁄𝑙 3 , it is also possible to tune low frequencies as seen in Figure 4.2.1. Used clamp bar and all other components in Figure 4.2.1. are provided with PPA-9011 Clamp Kit [80]. Throughout the calculations, tip mass attachment is chosen so that the effective stiffness value would be as stated in Mide Volture datasheet (Table 4.2.1) [59]. mtip at tuning frequency  Km  2 f tuning  2  meff (4.2.1) 56 Fixed at Clamp -6.0 : mtip at 7 Hz  267.45 N/m mtip at 21 Hz  267.45 N/m mtip at 77 Hz  267.45 N/m  2 .7Hz  2  2 .21Hz  2  2 .77Hz  0.645 kg  0.1376 kg=137.612 g 1000 (4.2.1a)  0.645 kg  0.0147 kg=14.717g 1000 (4.2.1b)  0.645 kg  0.4976 103 kg = 0.4976 g 1000 (4.2.1c)  2 Fixed at Clamp 0 : mtip at 7 Hz  446.28 N/m mtip at 21 Hz  446.28 N/m mtip at 77 Hz  446.28 N/m  2 .7Hz  2  2 .21Hz  2  2 .77Hz  2 0.614 kg  0.2301 kg=230.088g 1000 (4.2.1d)  0.614 kg  0.0250 kg=25.020g 1000 (4.2.1e)  0.614 kg  0.0013 kg = 1.293g 1000 (4.2.1f)  Figure 4.2.1.

Therefore, numerous load power approaches have been tested along with the manual load sweep. Evaluations have shown that the reasonable and optimum output power and voltage values are gathered when the Eq (4.2.2) is used. Some trials with different load resistances are listed in Table 4.2.2. 4.2.1. Tuned Performance of Single DOF Energy Harvester at 7 Hz Details of PPA-1011 are given in Appendix 4. Matlab code in Appendix 4 is used with train vibration data to evaluate the designed harvester. As seen from Table 4.2.1, Eq (4.2.1a) and (2.2.2a), fixing the base of VEH at clamp -6.0 and by using relative parameters performance evaluation is conducted. Hence, respective RMS power and voltage outputs are resulted as 5.16 mW and 20.7 V with 0.20% efficiency according to Eq (3.3.6). 4.2.2. Tuned Performance of Single DOF Energy Harvester at 21 Hz Similar to Part 4.2.1, PPA-1011 in Appendix 4 and Matlab code in Appendix 4 are used to evaluate the tuned performance at 21 Hz. Unlike previous part, this evaluation is 58 conducted for the base at clamp 0 location. As seen from Table 4.2.1, Eq (4.2.1e) and (2.2.2b), fixing the base of VEH at clamp 0 and by using relative parameters as well as the mass correctrion factor of1 (µ=1), performance evaluation is conducted. Hence, respective RMS power and voltage outputs are resulted as 0.326 mW and 3.252 V with 0.097% efficiency. However, here it is seen that the change in the optimal load has vast effecton the output power generation. As a result, frequency sweep resulted the optimum load as 40 kΩ and leading respective RMS power and voltage outputs of 3.279 mW and 7.335 V with an increased efficiency of 0.64 %. This massive change indicates that power generation is highly dependent on the load resistance. 4.2.3. Tuned Performance of Single DOF Energy Harvester at 80 Hz Similar to Part 4.2.2, PPA-1011 in Appendix 4 and Matlab code in Appendix 4 are used to evaluate the tuned performance at 21 Hz. As seen from Table 4.2.1, Eq (4.2.1f) and (2.2.2c), fixing the base of VEH at clamp 0 and by using relative parameters as well as the mass correctrion factor of 1.25 (µ=1.25) [REF4], performance evaluation is conducted. Hence, respective RMS power and voltage outputs are resulted as 0.005 mW and 0.169 V with 0.020% efficiency. The overall output powers, voltages and efficiencies summarized in Parts 4.2.1, 4.2.2 and 4.2.3 as a response to input excitation, and comparision of load resistances are listed in Table 4.2.2 regarding the selected tuning frequencies of 7 Hz, 21 Hz and 77 Hz. 59 Table 4.2.2. The RMS output powers, voltages and efficiencies as a response to input excitation at tuned frequencies of 7 Hz, 21 Hz and 77 Hz.

Performance Evaluation of Tuned Novel Two DOF Energy Harvester Array A novel energy harvester is designed combining two piezoelectric VEHs having two different resonance frequency combinations among 7 Hz, 21 Hz and 77 Hz while having a coupling spring combining the tips of PPA VEHs as in Figure 2.4.1 and Figure 4.3.1. It is aimed to investigate the effect of the spring with a stiffness K on first modes and resulted output power and voltage outputs. This evaluation follows the derivation expressed in Section 2.4 and its Matlab code is given in Appendix E. 60 Figure 4.3.1. The scheme of novel two dof energy harvester. The expected behaviours of the novel VEH array are to response just as two seperate cantilevered beam when the spring stiffness is 0 and to response as if the VEHs and the spring are rigid body when K goes to infinity or in practice, when K value is very large. Therefore, for K value to be 0, the response will be the same as in Section 4.2. which is outlined so far. Recalling the maximum amplitudes of respective displacement and aceleration are 7 Hz and 77 Hz while the common secondary peak around 21 Hz, the selected two resonance frequency combinations are: 7 Hz and 20 Hz, 7 Hz and 77 Hz, and 20 Hz and 77 Hz. The effect of the spring stiffness on power generation for these selected resonance frequency combinations of each beam is researched for the K values of 100, 250, 450 and 1000 N/m, and the results are listed in Table 4.3.1. 61 CHAPTER 5: RESULTS AND DISCUSSION 5.1. Introduction This chapter covers the validation of the proposed approach on solving the constitutive set of equations, detection of the diverged results of the proposed approach from the experimental data via sensitivity analysis and set conditions for the correction to reach more precise evaluation. Simulations indicate the higher mode frequencies are higher than the dominant frequencies of the input train vibration. These investigations are detailed in Appendix 5A. Regarding this fact, only first modes, namely natural frequencies are tuned to the dominant frequencies of the input train vibration signal. 5.2. Proposed approach Validation, Sensitivity Analysis and Correction In this chapter, one major check is conducted over the optimum load resistance. the first step of validation started by chacking the optimum load resistance value. If our approach is correct, then the experimentally found optimum load should give peak on the output power. These validations are deeply covered in Appendix 5B along with the the sensitivity analysis. After correcting the estimation accuracy, it is again returned to optimum load investigation to complete the research. At this point, it is also seen that the optimum load formulas presented in literature [54–58, 82, 83] result sometimes slightly and sometimes widely from the values used in the experiments. As the difference extends, evaluated output power via our proposed approach decreases. Returning back to the second step of correction: Throughout the evaluations -starting the first raw form as in the previously represented constitutive equation sets to the corrected final form- piezoelectric power generation requires correction regarding the input excitation characteristics. Though some harvester structures may have non-linear behaviors for acting as a plate model and sometimes between plate and beam model, this is not the case for this research. Nonetheless, Erturk proposed the first correction factor empirically for the pure piezo structures in 31 and 33 modes [83]. As the correction on the damping coefficient and the correction factor are integrated into the code, it is seen that not only the power and voltage outputs but also the tip-to-tip 62 displacement is converged with the test results. As a reminder, Erturk’s correction factor value that is calculated from his proposed formula does not hold when it is integrated into our evaluation. However, the correction factor is still needed and for the accurately selected value in the range that Erturk suggested, accuracy of our evaluation increases for the researched Midé’s composite piezoelectric beam energy harvesters. All these indicate that not only for power generation of piezoelectric energy harvesters but also the beam vibration response needs correction. This can be seen by tracking the Figure 5.2.1 and the corresponding tip to tip deflection value from Midé PPA datasheet [59]. When PPA-1021 is tuned to 22 Hz with a tip mass of 12.7 g and for 1g input acceleration at resonance, the tip deflection is half of 16.1 mm, that is 8.05 mm. Whereas, Ansys simulation resulted 37% less than this value (Figure 5.2.1, detailed in Appendix 5A). Thus, along with piezoelectric power generation, vibration response of the beam needs correction. Changing the damping factor regarding the characteristics of input vibration eased the great portion of the correction. Figure 5.2.1. Vibration response of PPA 1021-tuned to 22 Hz- at resonance under random vibration acceleration amplitude of 1g, units are in mm. Theoretical evaluations are completed in Matlab for the same inputs as in Midé’s experiments and the results are compared. In comparision with the other proposed analitical formulas in literature [54–58, 82, 83], our approach on solving set of differential constitutive equations results vastly better in terms of the minimum error of the previously explained comparision with experiment data. However, even in our 63 proposed approach, there exists only very few cases come precisely close with the experimental results. Thus, the appraoch needs to be corrected due to the nonlinearities in application. The same issue is also covered by Erturk, and he stated the input amplitude is one of the major factor and derives amplitude correction factor if there is no tip mass and for added tip mass, he suggests mass correction factor. As mentioned in Section 2.3, mass term in the constitutive set of equations are multiplied with the correction factor and for no added tip mass, amplitude correction factor is multiplied with base amplitude value [83]. In constitutive equations, the only and obvious one place is shown as in Eqs (2.3.6, 2.4.1-3) and substituted as(µ𝑚𝑎𝑠𝑠 + µ𝑎𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑢𝑑𝑒 ) for no tip mass case asin Eq (2.3.6) and for added tip mass µ𝑚𝑎𝑠𝑠 as seen in Eq (2.3.7). w  2n w  n 2 w -  V  -   mass  amplitude  wB V  RL C pV  RL w  0 w  2n w  n 2 w -  V  - mass wB V  RL C pV  RL w  0 (2.3.6) (2.3.7) Moreover, even when all these corrections are made, amplitude and tip mass are not the only factors affecting the change in the output power of the piezoelectric energy harvesters. In this study, sensitivity analysis indicates that in addition to input amplitude and tip mass, damping coefficient and correction factor are also the terms needs to be arranged regarding these two corrected major components. The common sense in the correction depends basically on the importance of tip mass and the input amplitude for directly affecting the output voltage and power. When the input mass does not exist, total damping or transducer damping alone is too much and effective mass is already very low due to the nature of the harvester structure, which leads very high mass correction factor to be effective. On the other hand, when the tip mass is high, mechanical damping alone is very low and as the amplitude increases, the total damping and low mass correction factor gives better results. For having many terms affecting the output power and voltage, instead of the derivation of correction factor formula including tip mass, acceleration amplitude and damping coefficient variables, via trial and error, the optimum values of all these mentioned parameters are tried to be found 64 for the fixed tuned frequencies, namely tip mass values and acceleration amplitudes. While the details of this investigation are given in Appendix 5B, graphically summarized 3 tip mass case for the relative amplitude inputs of 0.25g, 0.5g, 1g and 2g are expressed in Figure 5.2.2-5.2.4. As discussed in Appendix 5B, confidence intervals based on the corrections on the correction factor and the damping coefficients are clarified in Table 5.2.1. Referring the table, it is seen that for no tip mass and low tip mass, mechanical damping coefficient is dominant with a small transducer damping coefficient transition up until the 25.3 g of tip mass at 0.5g acceleration amplitude. After this amplitude range, damping coefficient is stabilized for the sum of mechanical and transducer damping. In Table 5.2.1, it is also seen that not only as the amplitude increases, but also as tip mass increases, correction factor decreases to its ineffective value of 1. In other words, after around 0.5g amplitude at 25.3 g of tip mass, the model does not need any correction to gain the accurate power output. For no tip mass case, amplitude correction factor is also considered along with the mass correction factor in the model of constitutive set of equations both takes place in the same and only place with 𝑚𝑤𝑏̈ term. Though in this study the chosen method to find the correction factor is trial and error since the empirically driven formula does not hold, the correction factor of maximum 3 also gives clue that it is very close to the summation of the amplitude and mass correction factors. Thus, for improved derivations, this observation is expected to be used in the following future studies. 65 Figure 5.2.2.

This subject is mentioned by by Calio et al. and widely covered by du Toit and Erturk. Previously covered determination of the optimum load in this chapter is also estimated via the proposed formulations by Calio et al, du Toit and Erturk as in Eqs (5.1.1-4), respectively. As seen from Table 5.1.1, Calio et al.’s proposed optimum load formula is steady among the same input frequency though the input excitation amplitude varies. Whereas, both the equivalent load sweep results of the runned codes and the estimated equivalent loads by use of duToit and Erturk formulas have tendency to response as the excitation amplitude increases. The referenced du Toit’s formulation is corrected by the multiplication of Calio et al.’s fundamental 𝜔 1 𝑛 𝐶𝑝 term in Eq (5.1.3) and re-calculated. Otherwise, du Toit’s equation results in very low values in between 0.5-2 (see Table 5.1.1).[82][55–57, 83] 1  Abeam 2 33 RL   A  R   1  A. 33 L   A 33 Ropt  hp   h h piezo  p    hp 1 R opt .Calio = = A ii C p Ropt ,duToit   4   4 m 2  2   2 1   2    4 m 2  2 1   k C  eff p   6 Ropt ,duToit ,corrected Ropt 1  n C P 1  n C p  4  2     1     keff C p (5.1.2) 2  2     4   4 m 2  2   2 1   2  6   4 m 2  2 1   keff C p    2 1   m 2      2 m  1     m2 1    2 m2   4  2    1       keff C p 2  2    (5.1.3) (5.1.4) where:  (5.1.1) 2 C p n 2 69 As Table 5.2.1 and 2 reveals both literature evaluation and the closer optimum load approach. For the estimation of optimum load, Calio and Erturk formulas seems close enough and it seems like the calculation load of Erturk is not necessary. Since du Toit takes account of the input frequency, its modification seems much closer results. Although Midé datasheet optimum load values varies, it is notified by Steve Hanly that some can be close to optimum but not the optimum load that are used in experiments and thus calculated as equivalent load. Regarding this fact, to gain the maximum power output of our code, optimum load gained by load resistance sweep is decided to be used in further evaluations. 70 Table 5.2.1.

Conclusion In the scope of this thesis, novel designs and methodologies on the estimation of the output power, voltage and tip deflection are introduced. It is also shown that usually discarded dominant frequency of displacement is also suitable as tuning frequency of the energy harvesters. As another contribution to literature, it is observed that the damping of the harvester changes according to the input vibration characteristics and regarding this change in evaluations hıghly contributes to increase the accuracy of the results. It is also shown that using Erturk’s improved version of the constitutive set of piezoelectric equations with acceleration amplitude (for no tip mass case) and mass correction factors also played the final polishing step to reach the accurate result especially in terms of focused RMS power output. Both of these corrections are found by iterative methods and set as boundary conditions for the respective input conditions and formed a new if condition block of our code and all the corrections are finally represented in the same Matlab code. Analysis of simulations are conducted in İTU and it is seen that Ansys modelling results better than SAP2000 simulations for allowing to introduce thin layers of Midé’s composite VEHs. Thus for future simulation studies, simulations will be carried out in Ansys. Completed modal analysis both in Ansys and SAP2000 indicated that higher mode frequencies are higher than the dominant frequencies and maximum band limit of our considered train vibration input. However, when the tip mass is very high or in other words, when the harvester is tuned to very low frequencies of 5 Hz, second mode frequency takes place in the input vibration frequency range. As stated in the following section 6.2, power generation at higer modes and multi DOF coupled designs needs to be investigated further. In conclusion, this thesis study brings new insights to the examination of output rms power and voltage, and tip displacement asn well as indicating EHing from the ignored dissipiated energy at the dominant frequency of the displacement input and finally, 73 suggesting a new coupled multi DOF energy harvester structures. Conclusions on Simulations Prior to theoretical analysis, simulation need is arosed from the aim of tuning higher modes of VEH. If the higher modes were in the range of input dominand frequency bands, thesis research aimed to focus on continuous vibrations. However, both regarding initial theorethical continuous vibration results without tip mass and simulation results with very high tip mass of 88.7 gr posesses greater second mode frequency than the train vibration range limit of 100 Hz. As well as regarding output power generation methodologies in literature, initial estimations without corrections lead to check any possible non-linear behaviour of Midé VEH at resonance. However, it is seen that non-linearity can only be considered at higher modes and certainly not the case for the resonance at first mode as supported by both Ansys and SAP2000. Following analysis also showed that regardless of the power generation, beam deflection alone is simulated less than experimental tip deflection values by 38 % for PPA 1021 at Clamp 0 position with 12.7 g tip mass and when vibration acceleration input is at 22 Hz and 1g. Combination of these outcomes supports the need of corrections in kinetic equations derived from the set of constitutive equations. Finally, SAP2000 is lack of accuracy for lumped mass modelling, yet very easy and fast for users. On the other hand, Ansys simulates much better for instance, for the fiirst mode fequency, natural frequency, is found by %5 error whereas the error of SAP2000 for the first mode frequency is 20% less. 6.2. Future Research Recommendations In spite of many researched subjects in scope of this thesis, there are still many to discover and investigate further. In terms of missing elements and inspired research issues, future recommendations are listed as follows: 74 1. Deep analysis of the measured train vibration data highlight inadequate low sampling frequency as well as noticing some peaks after 100 Hz. To eliminate this problem existing data is doubled by interpolation and increased the sampling frequency up to 600Hz. Thus, this manuel arrangement and consequent result indicated that train vibration measurements need to be repeated with higher sampling frequency. In this manner, new measurements with Slam-StickX of Midé Technology Corporation not only give more accurate data measurement but also provide easy to use Slam Stick Lab Software so that customers would be able to run vibration analysis- FFT, PSD and Spectrogram [70–75], 2. In addition to conducted investigations on train vibration analysis, signal spectrogram analysis could have been better on the selection of the tuning frequencies of VEH since spectrogram allows to detect the most frequently occurring frequencies [63], 3. Analyzing train vibration data along the whole railway line by Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) so that the analysis of the whole duration can be completed in less time, 4. Empirical formulation of amplitude and mass correction factor for the tested Midé Volture PPA products and considering mass correction factor value as less than 1.0 for high amplitudes when tuned to low frequencies, 5. Emprical and/or derived formulation of the damping coefficient instead of 3 boundaries of mechanical, transducer and total damping coefficients, 6. Derivation of the optimum resistance load formula by running more cases, 7. Considering secong mode shape of 88.7 g tip mass added harvester, researching energy harvesting from higher modes in the existence of the since the input vibration range collapses with the second mode frequency of PPA-1021 –tuned to 8.44 Hz (see Appendix 5A), 8. After investigating the coupled three VEHs (3DOF tuned to 3 dominant frequencies) and their power outputs (see Figures 6.2.1-3), analyzing the higher mode effects on modal shapes and output power and voltage when harvesters are coupled by a spring 75 9. Finally, these theorethical investigations should have been also validated and completed with the laboratory tests followed by applications on train and other transportation vehicles. Figure. 6.2.1.

Regarding Nyquist theorem, since known aliasing frequency is 100 Hz, oversampling frequency is selected as three-times of the aliasing frequency. As a result, during acceleration measurements are filtered with a low pass filter having the cut-off frequency of 100 Hz. The analyzed vibration data is selected among other 16 different data sets for having the greatest excitation amplitude. Imported actual acceleration data is first filtered with 8th order Butterworth high-pass filter and then integrated to evaluate the velocity data. For velocity data to be integrated, it is again filtered with 8th order Butterworth high-pass filter and then integrated to evaluate the displacement data. The high pass cut-off frequency of 4.5Hz is selected for applicable tuning range of piezo-beams, and more accurate and clear filtered output. Next, FFT and PSD [69] of the calculated displacement and acceleration data are estimated and plotted as in related following figures. The complete input vibration analysis is composed of three different investigation of train acceleration belonging different train locations among 16 measurements. Train vibration data as analyzed in 3A.1. is selected for the determination of the tuning frequencies, which is decided upon dominant frequencies. The reason behind this decision is that the suspected wrong measurements of the initially analyzed train vibration signals. In chronological order those are: (1) Lateral acceleration data at the middle train body (Section 3A.4), (2) Vertical train vibration at the third train bogie (Section 3A.3), (3) the selected data for 3DOF VEH Vertical acceleration data at the middle train body (Section 3A.2) and lastly (4) the selected data for 2DOF VEH with the same location with (1) -lateral acceleration data at the middle train body, but measured at different test run (Section 3A.1). This is the reason why the resulted 86 examinations of (1) and (4) are close. One difference of (3) is that the original sampling frequency of 300 Hz is doubled up to 600 Hz by interpolation and then analyzed as in Section 3A.2. The reason is explained in Chapter 3, under Section 3.2. Evaluation of Train Vibration Acceleration Data, in detail. As seen in Sections 3A.2 and 3, the vertical vibration amplitudes are lower than lateral ones, as expected from train movement. Also, as seen in Figures 3A.2.10, 12, 15 and 17, there exists three dominant frequencies at around 5 Hz, 20 Hz and 80 Hz. This three input power peaks can be harvested by 3 DOF VEH. Whereas, for the lateral vibration input, there are two dominant frequencies -one for acceleration at 88 Hz and the other for displacement at 6 Hz- exist and this input can be harvested by 2 DOF VEH. In regard to this perspective, input train acceleration vibration signals are analyzed to find the most suitable dominant frequencies for vibration energy harvesting as follows: 3A.1.

Previously Investigated Train Vibration Signal Characteristics and Analysis Lateral acceleration data at the middle train body In similar perspective with sections 3A.1 and 2., FFT and PSD are performed on the lateral acceleration data at the middle train body as seen in Figure 3A.3.10 and 11. In these figures, frequency axis is set to half of the sampling frequency of 150 Hz; however, maximum sampling frequency of 100 Hz is set as a limit. Figure 3A.3.10.

Power spectrum density of train lateral acceleration data. The most frequent frequencies own the greatest power. Figure 13. Zoomed PSD of train lateral acceleration data. Dominant frequencies having peak powers can be selected. 145 According to Figure 3A.3.11, the frequencies having highest energy to be harvested are close to 83.5 Hz, 76 Hz, 73 Hz, 90.2 Hz, 78.5 Hz, 92 Hz, 75 Hz and 79.5 Hz. Although, these frequencies possess the greatest energies, it is important to keep in mind that the half-power bandwidth of the harvesters and the first mode frequency results the resonance thus, greatest power. Consequently, it would be wise to pick the frequencies in ascending order and eliminating the close values of frequencies. In order to most efficiently harvest energy from train lateral movement, the VEH mode frequencies can be 83.5 Hz, 90.2 Hz and 92 Hz. On the other hand, the ascending order of the following frequencies can also be considered: 76 Hz, 78.5 Hz (only for very narrow bandwidth), 83.5 Hz, 90.2 Hz and 92 Hz. Table 3A.3.2.

ANSYS SIMULATIONS 5A.1.1. RESPONSE TO THE HARMONIC BASE INPUT First of all, PPA-1021 is modelled regarding all structural layers in realistic dimensions but the thickness of the glue in between layers. Then, PPA-1021’s modal analysis for the selected tuning frequency of 8.5 Hz (tip mass of 88.6 g) is completed and at the respective mode frequencies of 8.5, 109.62, 541.4, 1040.5, 1108.6 and 1731.5 Hz, 1mm amplitude of harmonic base excitation is applied. Mode response for the first six modes among infinitely many are as follows: The first mode: Regarding the dominant frequency of displacement, PPA-1021 is tuned to 8.5 Hz and the harmonic vibration input is given at the base of the beam with the displacement amplitude of 1mm.

Fifth mode response is given in Figure 5A.11-13. Please see the explanation in section named Note on 5th and 6th modes. Figure 5A.11.

Please see the explanation in section named Note on 5th and 6th modes. Figure 5A.14-a.

Cross-sectional view of the mode response of PPA 1021-tuned to 8.5 Hz- at 1731.5 Hz under 1mm of harmonic base excitation, the units are in mm. Note on 5th and 6th modes: After the fifth mode, modal analysis results turn out to be unrealistic as seen from the maximum deflection value to have the tendency to reach 2 m in fifth mode and 1.2 m in the sixth mode. Thus, they are investigated to see the mode shapes but not for the mode deflection values. 5A.1.2. RESPONSE TO THE RANDOM VIBRATION INPUT In harmonic vibration input, the input frequency is predefined at the exact mode frequencies. To see harvester behavior other than modal response, random vibration input at the maximum amplitude of 1mm is given. Static deflection under the tuning mass of 88.7g is in Figure 5A.17. Frequency response plot of PPA 1021-tuned to 8.5 Hz- is in Figure 5A.18 to indicate the expected output in wide frequency range. The vibration response analysis for 1mm of maximum input displacement amplitude is shown in Figures 5A.19-21. Since random vibration input is given, harvester response when the harvester is tuned to other dominant frequency of train vibration is also investigated. Therefore, the same harvester is tuned to 22 Hz with 12.7g of tip mass and its vibration response to random vibration input with a maximum input acceleration amplitude of 1g is shown in Figures 5A.22-24.

SAP2000 SIMULATIONS Modal analysis is initially studied in SAP2000 for PPA-1001. However, it is seen that rough one-layer modelling with estimated composite volumetric elasticity modulus resulted errors especially in higher modes. At first, harvester was modelled as a whole but it is seen that the natural frequency was much higher than the 98.9 Hz for 6.0 clamp position of PPA-1011 (without any tip mass). Therefore, it is attempted to use the lumped mass model. In this case the total mass of the harvester is divided in to the small masses to fill the nodes when the harvester is divided into 20x20 planar grids. This model is given in Figure 5A.25. In this modelling case, the natural frequency converged and simulation resulted as 71.3 Hz. Other mode frequencies are listed in Table 5A.1. The first mode is as expected and other mode shapes are given in the following figures (Figure 5A.26-42). 169 Figure 5A.25.

It is seen that all the simulated mode shapes of the tip massless cases in Sap2000 differs from the tip mass added results of other harvester model. Although the added tip mass in Ansys differs than the analytically calculated tip mass value or the related natural frequency, the difference is always less than 5% and far better than SAP2000 having the error of approximately 20%. Therefore, future studies will be carried out in Ansys. 176 APPENDIX 5B Chapter 5: Results and Discussion VALIDATION & SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS 5B.1. VALIDATING MATLAB CODE OUTPUT WITH EXPERIMENTS To begin with, one major check is conducted over the optimum load. If our approach is correct, then the experımentally found optimum load should give peak on the output power. It is also seen that the optimum load formulas presented in literature [54–58, 82, 83] does neither hold the values of the experiments nor gives reasonable output powers as a result of the evaluation of our proposed approach. As seen in Table 1, Matlab function output is listed and compared with the Midé’s experiment results. For the complete comparision with Midé’s tests for the middle clamp location, constitutive set of differential equations are solved for the 147 Hz, 60 Hz at 0.25g, 0.5g, 1g and 2g, and for 21 Hz at 0.25g, 0.5g and 1g. Relevant optimum load value that is used in experiments are selected for the solutions in MATLAB. At this point, calculation results are highly dependent on the damping coeficient. Additionally, for the correct estimation, output power trend is expected to have its maximum value at optimuml oad used in experiments. Therefore, sensitivity analysis is also run for different R loads at constant two seperate damping coefficients of transducerdamping alone and sum oftransducer and mechanical damping. As expected, evaluations for both damping coefficient have given the expected result and trends. The sensitivity analysis is given in Tables 2-6 and Figures 1-6 for the optimum load resistance. In Table 7-9, overall sensitivity analysis of load and damping coefficient on output power is listed. It is seen that except 0.25g input case, transducer damping coefficient alone gives very high output powers. On the other hand, total damping coefficient as the sum of mechanical and transducer damping gives more accurate results. Thus, the function is updated with the if block. In comparision with the other proposed analitical formulas in literature [54–58, 82, 83], the our approach on solving set of differential constitutive equations results vastly better in terms of the minimum error of the previously explained comparision with experiment data. However, even in our proposed approach, there exists only very few cases come precisely close with the experimental results. Thus, the appraoch needs to be corrected due to the nonlinearities in application. The same issue is also covered by Erturk, and he stated the input amplitude is one of the major factor and derives amplitude correction factor if there is no tip mass and for added tip mass, he suggests mass correction factor. As mentioned in Section 2.3, mass term in the constitutive set of equations are multiplied with the correction factor and for no added tip mass, amplitude correction 177 factor is multiplied with base amplitude value [83]. In constitutive equations, the only and obvious one place is shown as in Eqs (2.3.6, 2.4.1-3) and substituted as µ. Moreover, even when all these corrections are made, amplitude and tip mass are not the only factors affecting the change in the output power of the plate model piezoelectric energy harvesters. In this study, sensitivity analysis indicates that in addition to input amplitude and tip mass, damping coefficient and correction factor are also the terms needs to be arranged regarding these two corrected major components. The common sense in the correction depends basically on the importance of tip mass and the input amplitude for directly affecting the output voltage and power. When the input mass does not exist, total damping or transducer damping alone is too much and effective mass is already very low due to the nature of the harvester structure, which leads very high mass correction factor to be effective. On the other hand, when the tip mass is high, mechanical damping alone is very low and as the amplitude increases, the total damping and low mass correction factor gives better results. For having many terms affecting the outputs, instead of the derivation of correction factor formula including tip mass, acceleration amplitude and damping coefficient, via trial and error, the optimum values of all these mentioned parameters are tried to be found for the fixed tuned frequencies, namely tip mass values and acceleration amplitudes. Overall sensitivity analysis results for the input accelerations of 0.25g, 0.5g, 1g, and 2g for the tuning masses of 25.3g, 2.7g and no tip mass for the relative tuning frequencies of 21 Hz, 60 Hz and 145 Hz, for the mechanical damping alone, transducer damping alone and the total damping, over the varying coefficient factors are listed in Table 10 and summarized graphs are in Figures 7-9. 178 Table 5B.1.

The resulted output and its precision are listed in Table 13. As highlighted with red, the output power of the final case (2g amplitude input at 23 Hz with 25.3g of tip mass) is overestimated by 11% for output power even when no correction is made. Since correction factor is not stated as lower than 1 by Erturk [83], it is left as its original estimated results. In Tables 5B.14 and 15, selected damping and correction factors of PPA-1011 and 2011 are listed as a summary. It is seen that since PPA-2011 is improved version of PPA1011, the output powers are greater. Thus, damping coefficients of PPA2011 and 1011 differs for the similar inputs and correction factors are greater for PPA 2011. For no tip mass case, amplitude correction factor is also considered along with the mass correction factor in the model of constitutive set of equations both takes place in the same and only place with 𝑚𝑤𝑏̈ term. Though, in this study the chosen method to find the correction factor is trial and error since the empirically driven formula does not hold. The correction factor of maximum 3 also gives clue that it is very close to the summation of the amplitude and mass correction factors. Thus, for improved derivations, this observation is expected to be used in future studies. 197 Table 5B.13. For PPA-2011 Midé energy harvester, output power corrections are made upon the correction factors and the relative damping coefficient as both stated for each case. At the same damping coefficient, the difference from the uncorrected estimation (correction factor of 1) is stated as well as the tip displacement, power and voltage output errors from the experimental data.

Determination of the Optimum Load As briefly covered optimum load is also investigated over the proposed formulations by Calio et al, du Toit and Erturk as in Eqs (1.1.1-4) determination. It is seen that Calio et al.’s proposed optimum load formula differs far from the equivalent loads used in experiments but the basis of the load estimation since duToit and Erturk use this basic 1 term with correction. It is also observed that this term is missing in du Toit’s 𝜔 𝐶 𝑛 𝑝 equation thus results in very low values in between 0.5-2. Du Toit’s formula is corrected by this term in Eq (1.1.4) and re-calculated. Evaluations along with the optimum load result in our approach are listed in Table 5B.16 and 17. 1  Abeam 2 33 RL   A  R   1  A. 33 L   A 33 Ropt  hp   h h piezo  p    hp 1 R opt .Calio = = A ii C p Ropt ,duToit  Ropt  (1.1.1)  4   4 m 2  2   2 1   2 6 2    4 m  2 1   k C  eff p   1 n C P  4  2     1     keff C p (1.1.2) 2  2    2 1   m 2     2  m  1     m 2 1    2 m 2  (1.1.3) where:  2 C p n 2 Ropt ,duToit ,corrected 1  n C p  4   4 m 2  2   2 1   2  6   4 m 2  2 1   keff C p     4  2    1       keff C p 2  2    (1.1.4) Confidence intervals are clarified in Table 5B.14 and 15. Referring Table 14 and 15, it is seen that for no tip mass and low tip mass, mechanical coupling factor is dominant with a small transducer damping factor transition up until the 25.3 g of tip mass at 0.25g for PPA-2011 and at 0.5g acceleration amplitude for PPA-1011. After this amplitude range, damping coefficient is stabilized for the sum of mechanical and transducer damping. In Table 5B.14 and 15, it is also seen that not only as the amplitude increases, 200 but also as tip mass increases, correction factor decreases to its ineffective value of 1. In other words, for PPA-1011, after around 0.5g amplitude at 25.3 g of tip mass, the model does not need any correction to gain the accurate power output. On the other hand, for PPA-2011, this is not the case, correction factor is always needed except the case with a tip mass of 25.3g at 2g. 201 Table 5B.16.
