A magnetoelastic tent concept could one day turn wind, movement and fabric flexing into usable electricity. Researchers have developed a tent that …
Researchers have developed a tent that harvests energy from its own motion — a process that could one day power small devices in shelters, disaster zones and off-grid camps.
The key lies in a material property known as "magnetoelasticity," which turns bending and stretching motion into electrical energy. Magnetoelasticity, first described in 1865 by physicist Emilio Villari, is the change in a material's magnetic flux density when mechanical stress is applied in the presence of an external magnetic field.
