This paper presents the effect of different substrate materials and proof mass configurations through a simulation of a bimorph cantilever beam that consists of one-layer substrate material sandwiched between two layers of piezoelectric material (PZT-5A) to harvest the vibration energy. To evaluate the performance of the energy harvesting system within the range of 62 Hz to 80 Hz (except for the no tip mass condition), the tip mass will be relocated from the free end of the cantilever beam using a variety of proposed positions on the beam itself. The shape and sizes of the tip mass will also be varied accordingly to observe its impact on the performance of the system. In addition, a variety of different material applied as substrate material is being compared to observe its impact on the frequency response output. The material of the tip mass was also varied to analyse its differences. The simulation was done using COMSOL Multiphysics and the results was presented by varying the parameters of the model.
