Multi-body system of structures with electro-mechanical resonators
Tichý, Jiří ; Lošák, Petr (referee) ; Hadaš, Zdeněk (advisor)
This thesis is dealing with creation of computation model of energy harvestors. Harvestors based on translational motion and planar motion were modeled. These models were created in MSC Adams. Proposed harvestors are tranforming mechanical vibrations into electrical energy by electromagnetical induction. To achieve better electrical output, harvestors were tuned to natural frequency suitable for chosen aplication. First proposed harvestor is meant for railway track. For validation of its usability in intended application, model of railway track section is also proposed. Force generated by passing train is used for excitation of the track model. Second harvestor is nonlinear electromechanical oscilator proposed for use on unanchored sea buoy (drifter). After retuning previously proposed concept of energy harvestor to natural frequency 1.6 Hz, computation model for simulation purposes was created. After the simulation of sinusoidal excitation, the excitation based on real sea data was simulated. When excited by regular sea, the peak electric power 9 W was achieved. When excited by irregular sea the peak electrical power of the generator was 7.5 mW.

Simulation and modeling of free body dynamic inside sea drifter
Moravec, Jakub ; Věchet, Stanislav (referee) ; Hadaš, Zdeněk (advisor)
This thesis deals with the development of a simulation model of an energy harvester based on the electromagnetic resonator principle. The introduction focuses on a search of the devices created so far for the conversion of kinetic energy of the sea into electrical energy. Furthermore, a model of the resonator design tuned to a frequency of 1.6 Hz is created in the body dynamics program MSC Adams. Simulations are performed in this program to analyze the resonator properties. Finally, the model is tested by real sea excitation. From these simulations, the electrical power obtained by this device is then predicted. Under regular sea excitation, the harvester power reached instantaneous peak values of 5 W and in case of irregular sea excitation the peak power values reached up to 16 mW.
