Opis

Modeling and Characterization of the Mechanoelectric Response of Ionic Polymer Metal Composite (IPMC) Energy Harvesters is reported. Three key aspects of the research is reported in this book: develop a framework on the mechanoelectric model, evaluate the capability of IPMC as energy harvester in natural bender configuration and assess the feasibility of non-conventional configurations including disc shaped IPMC for energy harvesting applications.
