Abstract

A great deal of research has in recent years been carried out on harvesting energy using smart systems. Harvesting energy from the ambient environment has become an emerging technology for many applications, ranging from portable electric devices to renewable energy. This article constitutes a synthesis of work carried out within the framework of a study on systems for energy harvesting. The objective of the project was to design an intelligent retarder system. The advantage of the energy recovery system is that it transforms the kinetic energy produced by the passage of vehicles on the retarder to electric energy using a mechanism. The powers involved in this context can go up to 46 kW/h.
