The new energy harvester of interest is known as Hybrid Energy Harvester (HEH). It comprises of the Piezoelectric and Magnetostrictive/Electromagnetic transducers integrated into a system. Theoretically, the hybrid energy harvester device developed is targeted to expand the vibration bandwidth as compared to the standalone energy harvesters, hence higher output power will be generated. To develop the hybrid energy harvester, mathematical models of each respective transducers are formulated, then simulations are carried out using the MATLAB/Simulink analysis tool. Next, a macro-scale prototype device is designed, fabricated and validated. From the experimental characterizations, it is unveiled that the maximum open circuit output voltage produced by the hybrid energy harvester is 6.23 V at a resonant frequency of 59.6 Hz. © 2017 IEEE.
