Abstract: A numerical investigation of the influence of the support stiffness of a vibration energy harvesting device upon its frequency response is done in this study. The aim is to enlarge the working frequency range of the device. The numerical results are verified by some real device experiments. On the base of the results there are defined useful conclusions for widening of the device frequency range.
