Mechanical Design of Piezoelectric Energy Harvesters: Generating Electricity from Human Walking provides the state-of-the-art, recent mechanical designs of piezoelectric energy harvesters based on piezoelectric stacks. The book discusses innovative mechanism designs for energy harvesting from multidimensional force excitation, such as human walking, which offers higher energy density. Coverage includes analytical modeling, optimal design, simulation study, prototype fabrication, and experimental investigation. Detailed examples of their analyses and implementations are provided. The book's authors provide a unique perspective on this field, primarily focusing on novel designs for PZT Energy harvesting in biomedical engineering as well as in integrated multi-stage force amplification frame.

This book presents force-amplification compliant mechanism design and force direction-transmission mechanism design. It explores new mechanism design approaches using piezoelectric materials and permanent magnets. Readers can expect to learn how to design new mechanisms to realize multidimensional energy harvesting systems.

Dr. Qingsong Xu is a Professor in the Department of Electromechanical Engineering at the Faculty of Science and Technology, University of Macau, and has served as the Director of the Smart and Micro/Nano Systems Laboratory since 2010. His research focuses on intelligent micro/nanosystems, precision robotics, and biomedical applications. He currently serves as an Associate Editor for IEEE Transactions on Robotics (T-RO). Previously, he was a Technical Editor for IEEE/ASME Transactions on Mechatronics (T-MECH) and an Associate Editor for both IEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering (T-ASE) and IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters (RA-L). Prof. Xu has received more than ten best paper awards from international conferences and multiple Macao Science and Technology Awards from Macao SAR, China. Since 2019, he has been recognized among the top 2% of the world's scientists by Stanford University. He is also a Fellow of ASME. Prof. Lap Mou TAM has been working in the area of heat transfer, energy systems, and chaos for 30 years. He has published over 100 peer-reviewed papers in journals and conferences in related domains.
