How to Put Piezoelectric in the Upper Prosthetic

Piezoelectric in the Upper Prosthetic

The series of piezoelectric was used to embed inside the socket area
including the hitting harvesting kit. The
complete set would be moulded as part of
the material for the upper prosthetic leg.

PSCAD/PSPICE and Piezoelectric PZT

The investigation of the actual open-circuit
output voltage at no load operation
together with measuring the output
parameters (resistance and capacitance) of
the PZT by RLC meter were applied and
the data were used to complete the
modelling by PSCAD/PSPICE.

It would be useful not only for the energy management circuit
analysis but also in the design system.
The output voltage waveforms was used to
discussed with the general output
characteristic of the piezoelectric PZT from
the simplified mechanical model [23].

DC motor employed with Piezoelectric

This chapter presents the electromechanical
technique for the
piezoelectric PZT (Lead Zirconate Titanate).
The electromechanical characteristic of the
studied PZT would be analyzed based on
experiments while the investigation of the
energy generation was shown in Figure 6.1
which used a DC motor which employed as
the mechanical force source. It used to
control the action which would make contacts to one of the piezoelectric PZT arm
at the frequency 1 Hz. The output voltage
waveform, VP, generated from the PZT is
observed, investigated and measured the
value at each touching step.
