Energy Harvesting

Description

The Energy Harvesting Technical Committee (EHTC) of the Smart Materials, Adaptive Structures, and Intelligent Systems (SMASIS) division in the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) is concerned with all aspects of energy harvesting technology from dynamical systems, as well as the related technologies, such as nonlinear dynamics and metamaterials. Examples of energy harvesting technologies and systems in this context span from NEMS/MEMS power generators for low-power sensor systems to mesoscale and large-scale harvesters for recovering wind and wave energy. The EHTC serves academic, governmental, and industrial professionals from mechanical and aerospace, civil and environmental, electrical and electronics, and materials science engineering, among other engineering and applied sciences disciplines. We foster the creation of societally significant energy harvesting research areas by bringing together leading researchers from different related academic disciplines and industrial sectors.
