In the present diploma thesis, we study the energy harvesting of mechanical vibrations using piezoelectric materials. The examined electromechanical model is a composite plate which lower and upper layers comprise piezoelectric plates and it’s fixed at its left end. The model is distinguished by the finite element method. The simulations were made in the “Matlab” programming environment. The purpose of the thesis is to increase and collect the generated energy (in Joules) from mechanical vibrations using piezoelectric elements at different locations of the plate. Moreover, the number of piezoelectric elements is also changing. The exploration of different scenarios is aiming in increasing the modal strain energy (MSE) for further use or storage.
