Abstract

A cantilever beam, manufactured from a steel-carrying substrate and two patches of Macro Fiber Composite of P2 type, was a subject of laboratory research. MFC patches were glued on both sides of the carrying substrate and were parallelly connected. An experimental determination of an optimal resistance for both energy harvesting and vibration passive damping of the cantilever beam was the purpose of the conducted laboratory research. The research contained 10 experiments in which courses of the energy-harvesting process and resistive passive damping of vibration were estimated. Energy harvesting was estimated by measurements of the generated current for the given load-resistance values. Resistive passive damping of vibration was assessed by using a vision method that enabled the displacements’ measurements of 10 selected points in the beam structure for the given shunt-resistance values. Values of both load resistance and shunt resistance were chosen on the basis of analytically calculated optimal load resistance and optimal shunt resistance. On the basis of the conducted experiments, the resistance range for which both the energy-harvesting process and the vibration-damping process are most effective was determined.
