ABSTRACT
This chapter covers the design of vibration energy harvesters based
on the electromagnetic working principle. In the recent years a
large number of such transducers have been developed by different
scientific organizations. A conclusion of the state of the art leads to
the analytical description and basic tools for the design of resonant
vibration transducers with its mechanical and electromagnetic
subsystems. The design and optimization of the overall transducer
system is shown on a sample for automotive applications.
