The paper deals with modeling a Piezoelectric Generator (PEG) that includes piezoactive elements, inertial mass, plate and rack. The PEG under consideration can be an element of the energy storage device in the capacity of the source of energy provided from vibrations of elements of structures and machines.The main objective of the paper is to gain the PEG efficiency by finding the optimal geometric parameters for finding the highest output potential.The elastic and piezoceramic media are modeled within the framework of the linear theory of electroelasticity. As a research tool, CAE package ACELAN is used in which three-dimensional and axisymmetric device models are built. The numerical experiments performed a modal and harmonic analysis that enabled us to identify the most effective operating frequencies.

Cord-shaped stretchable supercapacitors have received much attention due to their high stretchability and three-dimensional flexibility. For coaxial supercapacitors, lower capacitive performance and the inextensibility of the separation layer have been the important factors hindering further developments. In this work, we developed an integration technology to fabricate multiple yarn-electrodes by a layer-to-layer braiding. Between the inner and outer electrodes there is a braided elastic separator by braiding multiple spandex yarns. The braided separator features not only a reliable separation of the inner and outer electrodes, but also a high stretchability and high porosity. The cord-shaped supercapacitor shows an excellent capacitive performance of 60.1 mF/cm2 with energy density of 5.4 μWh/cm2, power density of 0.52 mW/cm2 and extremely high capacitance retention of 99.8% under the strain of 100%, demonstrating the application value of this stretchable energy storage device.

Ventilation tunnel wind-induced vibration piezoelectric energy collection MFC as vibration energy in the ventilation tunnel and stores it in the energy storage device to provide the electrical energy required by the wireless sensor in the tunnel. According to the piezoelectric effect of piezoelectric materials, the instantaneous accumulated positive and negative charges generated at both ends of the piezoelectric vibrator at the instantaneous wind speed and wind vibration in the tunnel are collected. By establishing a piezoelectric energy collection model, the irregular transient charges are captured and stored as Available direct current. The piezoelectric energy harvesting model uses wind speed rotation as the traction force to drive the piezoelectric vibrator to vibrate, thereby converting wind energy into instantaneous electrical energy, and using the electrical energy harvesting device to store the electrical energy in the energy storage device. Experiments verify that when the wind-induced vibration piezoelectric energy collection model of the ventilation tunnel is at a wind speed of 8m/s, the maximum output voltage of the energy storage device is 42.2V, which can meet the power supply requirements of wireless sensors in the ventilation tunnel.

For decades, improvements in electrolytes and electrodes have driven the development of electrochemical energy storage devices. Generally, electrodes and electrolytes should not be developed separately due to the importance of the interaction at their interface. The energy storage ability and safety of energy storage devices are in fact determined by the arrangement of ions and electrons between the electrode and the electrolyte. In this paper, the physicochemical and electrochemical properties of lithium-ion batteries and supercapacitors using ionic liquids (ILs) as an electrolyte are reviewed. Additionally, the energy storage device ILs developed over the last decade are introduced.
