　　For these recent years, piezoelectric energy harvesting has been a very popular research topic.Piezoelectric materials are used to harvest wasted mechanical energy from ambient environment and supply electrical energy via their electromechanical coupling property.However, there has been no research, which explicitly studies the influence of environmental factors on the performance of energy harvesting from the piezoelectric materials in automotive application, especially in the engine compartment where the temperature varies with operating conditions.
