  • Abstract
    This paper analyzes the working principle and structure strength of vertically integrated piezoelectric nanowires into active devices for sensing or energy harvesting applications. Finite element method simulations have been used to evaluate the performances of the devices working in flexion and compression modes under varying input pressure. The geometric influence on the energy generation is also analyzed.
