A while-drilling energy harvesting device is designed in this paper to recovery energy along with the longitudinal vibration of the drill pipes, aiming to serve as a continuous power supply for downhole instruments during the drilling procedure. Radial size of the energy harvesting device is determined through the drilling engineering field experience and geological survey reports. A piezoelectric coupling model based on the selected piezoelectric material was established via COMSOL Multiphysics numerical simulation. The forced vibration was analyzed to determine the piezoelectric patch length range and their best installation positions. Modal analysis and frequency response research indicate that the natural frequency of the piezoelectric cantilever beam increased monotonously with the increase of the piezoelectric patch’ thickness before reaching an inflection point. Moreover, the simulation results imply that the peak voltage of the harvested energy varied in a regional manner with the increase of the piezoelectric patches. When the thickness of the piezoelectric patches was 1.2–1.4 mm, the designed device gained the best energy harvest performance with a peak voltage of 15–40 V. Works in this paper provide theoretical support and design reference for the application of the piezoelectric material in the drilling field.

Recent developments in single crystal piezoelectric materials have focused on the search for "ideal" materials with zero temperature coefficient of frequency orientations featuring jointly high piezoelectric coupling, high intrinsic Q, zero power flow angle, and minimized diffraction effects. In addition, the desired materials should have no low temperature phase transitions, and a physical chemistry conducive to repeatable, low cost growth and wafer scale device production. As difficult as it might seem to find such "ideal" materials, three completely different but strong candidate materials have emerged recently: the quartz homeotype gallium orthophosphate, the quartz isotype calcium gallo-germanates (langasite, langanite, langatate, etc.), and diomignite (lithium tetraborate). The current state-of-the-art and prospects for future development of these materials are considered.

PZT ceramic system with presence of La contents, have been proposed and prepared using sol gel sintering method for practical application of photostriction, which is the superposition of photovoltaic and piezoelectric effects. Such a ceramics produced by conventional mixing oxide method does not exhibit photostrictive properties due to the defects and inhomogeneous distribution of grains and pores. In this study, an investigated lanthanium(III) doped PZT ceramics were obtained by sol-gel technique from the organometallic precursors. It was found that fabricated material were effective in the enhancement of photovoltaic and photostrictive properties. Consequently, lanthanium influence deviation of piezoelectric parameters were studied as a function UV light illumination. For the determination lighting dependancy of the transformation parameters the resonant and antiresonant method was implemented. The improved Piezoelectric Transformer structure successfully changed gain characteristics proportionally to light intensity. The authors invention of a light driven output gain adjustment in Piezoelectric Transformers (PT) yields a novel “smart” multifunctional wireless device. This new created application area can be utilized in self-adopting shutters in photo cameras due to improved sensitivity to surrounding illumination conditions.

A prototype for multi-mode linear ultrasonic motor has been proposed and designed. It is designed using a combination of the first longitudinal and the first bending mode. The piezoelectric ceramics convert energy using the longitudinal d33 effect which allows an improved reliability, large vibration amplitudes and excellent piezoelectric coupling. The normal direction motion of the driving element is excited by the first longitudinal mode. The tangential direction motion of the driving element is excited by the first bending mode. The resulting displacement of the driving element is transmitted by the frictional force between the vibrator and the rail in a linear motion. The analysis on the modals of the composite vibrator by using the ANSYS finite element software has been presented in this paper. Finally, the vibrator structure of the motor and the motor's own structures are designed. The basic design is discussed and simulations are compared with the experimental results, the results show that the motor characteristics can be optimized for a particular task by choosing the appropriate operating parameters such as exciting voltage, exciting frequency and normal force.

The Kistler company has invented piezoelectric dynamic weighing sensors which are applied to determine dynamically axle load, speed and gross weight of the vehicle based on piezoelectric effect of quartz crystal. They mainly consist of load-carrying beams and sensitive elements. Focusing on the control of preload in design and fabrication, finite element method (FEM) is applied with ANSYS software to optimize structural sizes. The influence curve of the structural dimensions of load-carrying beam on the preload is analyzed. With the piezoelectric coupling analysis function, the preload influence on the sensor sensitivity is researched. FEM simulation results show that the critical dimensions of load-carrying beam as well as the deformation and wall thickness of cavity have significant impact on the preload. Further studies show that the sensor has the highest sensitivity with the reasonable deformation and wall thickness of the cavity. In this paper, a sensor with range of 150 kN has the highest sensitivity at the wall thickness of 2 mm and the deformation of 0.14 mm.
