Let me give you an example of a thought (I haven't given it a huge amount of thought...just brainstorming again!) In Swansea, Wales they are building a tidal lagoon power plant. There will be large walls enclosing the lagoon area with suiles that allow water to pour in/out and turbines that...

So there is no positive correlation between size of displacement and power output? - ie. if there is a larger force placed on a piezo there will be more energy produced? Also, I suppose your point about high frequency is where I was getting at with my sail question. If you've ever been on a...

Thanks for the welcome. I'm unsure exactly what question you're asking me but hopefully my reply is what you're looking for. The main issues I've observed in the little I've seen are multi-fold. But the biggest issues are: 1. Media such as quartz/ceramic only produce electricity at the...

Hello all; Just thought I'd throw a brainstorming question to all you smart guys out there about a subject I know only from the youtube videos I've just come across. Large scale electricity generation from piezoelectricity. I'm aware that this technology is used mostly on a small scale...
