Shadow enhanced self-charging power system for wave and solar energy harvesting from the ocean: Hybrid energy-harvesting systems that capture both wave and solar energy from the oceans using triboelectric nanogenerators and photovoltaic cells are promising renewable energy solutions. However, ubiquitous shadows cast from moving objects in these systems are undesirable as they degrade the performance of the photovoltaic cells. Read moreā¦
Elastic Multifunctional LiquidāMetal Fibers for Harvesting Mechanical and Electromagnetic Energy and as Self-Powered Sensors: Future wearable technologies and personal electronics may benefit from e-textiles that simultaneously possess high elasticity and multiple capabilities such as energy harvesting and sensing. Here, the first elastic multifunctional fiber that can scavenge mechanical energy from body motion and electromagnetic energy from surrounding electrical appliances is presented.Ā Read moreā¦
Miniaturized Salinity Gradient Energy Harvesting Devices: Harvesting salinity gradient energy, also known as āosmotic energyā or āblue energyā, is generated from the free energy mixing of seawater and fresh river water provides a renewable and sustainable alternative for circumventing the recent upsurge in global energy consumption. The osmotic pressure resulting from mixing water streams with different salinities can be converted into electrical energy driven by a potential difference or ionic gradients. Read moreā¦
Mechanisms and applications of vibration energy harvesting in solid rocket motors Energy harvesting has become a fascinating topic of research. As the world moves towards reducing its dependency on fossil fuels, new and innovative techniques of energy harvesting have been tested and developed. The use of piezoelectric materials to harvest the ambient vibrations from the surroundings is one method that has seen a dramatic rise in use for power harvesting. Read moreā¦
