Power Generating Sound Absorber – AGCM2011 Paper

Demand on effective noise control technology was increased according to the environmental issue and its health impact. In the other side, searching on new renewable energy innovation due to the limitation of fossil energy availabilities shows a significant growth in various kind and technologies.

Vibration based energy harvesting system is one of such innovation that currently facing very promising applications due to the advance on smart material and ceramic technology. Current achievement on nanopiezotronic researches including nanopiezowire for example, giving higher possibility for convert low strain into electricity.

The most interesting challenge is then providing new technology that can solve both noise and green energy problems in a single comprehensive solution. This means a high performance sound absorber featuring vibration and noise driven power generating abilities.
