Model of composite cantilever with piezoelectric layer

This thesis deals with the generating electrical energy from vibrations from piezoelectric composite cantilever beam. A review of the piezoelectric materials is made. Then the analytical model of piezoelectric cantilever beam is presented, then the influence of parameters is inves-tigated. Case study with theoretic design of parameters on the specific source of vibration is also provided. Last part is the extension of model for the variable width of layers at cantileve
