rktpro Posted August 30, 2011 Share Posted August 30, 2011 I am planning to make a model or just write a paper in the one week holiday I would get next month. I have come upon with the idea that energy from friction should be utilised. Has this been done before? What would be the theoretical and practical possibility of this? How would the model go? What would be the limitations? If i get such a model made, I would like to install it at crowded places like a bus stop. Energy from the friction generated by shoe sole would run our machine(model).

A Tripolation Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Is there a way to make a working model of it? ...did you read the article? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rktpro Posted September 1, 2011 Author Share Posted September 1, 2011 ...did you read the article? Yes, I did. My question, to be more precise, is that how can I make a working model of it. I mean would it possible to show the electricity generation on a small scale and using a little cheap components? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leader Bee Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 No, To the best of my knowledge Piezoelectric plates are expensive to manufacture and used in very specific applications. You'd be lucky to get this to work from stuff you can get down your local DIY store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rktpro Posted September 2, 2011 Author Share Posted September 2, 2011 I would make a non working model. What would you recommend studying to make it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
