Abstract :
The applications of the Direct Methanol Fuel Cell, like energy generators for electric vehicles and mobile devices that generates electricity, need a study of the behaviour of the Fuel cell under mechanical vibrations. There are certain effects regarding the functioning of the fuel cell, which can affect the efficiency and the maintenance process.
