- The University
Against
Itself: The
NYU Strike and
the Future of
the Academic
Workplace: (28 February
2008)The
essays in this
book, written
by people
involved
either
involved in
the strike
(graduate
students,
faculty,
organizers) or
who are
nationally
recognized
writers on
academic
labor, offers
lessons on
what the GSOC
strike says
about the
current role
of the
university in
public life,
and how the
pressure for
universities
to realign
themselves
along the
lines of
private
corporations
has broad
implications
for the future
of higher
education.

Vol.3.This
paper
addresses
energy
harvesting
from
biomechanical
motions. Such
a technique is
useful for
powering small
portable
devices, such
as wireless
phones, music
players, and
digital
assistants.
For very low
power devices,
biomechanical
energy may be
enough to
provide
baseload
power. In
others, such
as cell phones
(which
typically
requires up to
3 W),
biomechanical
energy would
recharge
batteries for
extended use
between line
charges, or
allow for peak
just-in-time
power. In this
paper, we
consider
several
biomechanical
motions for
power
generation. We
evaluate
actuation
methods,
including
magnetic,
piezoelectric,
electrostatic,
and electrical
polymers for
various
motions in
terms of
energy, power,
mass, and
cost. We also
discuss the
practical
issues
associated
with each,
especially in
terms of the
power
electronics
required to
connect the
biomechanical
sources to
useful loads.
