• Issues in mathematical modeling of piezoelectric energy harvesters (2008, methodology): “Although they [19] gave the modal expansion (equation (16) here) as the general solution to the Euler–Bernoulli beam equation, Ajitsaria et al [19] tried to combine the dynamic Euler– Bernoulli beam equation with the constant radius of curvature relations presented by DeVoe and Pisano [30].”
