Internal vibration is vibrating the concrete from within the formwork, while external vibration is vibrating the formwork from the outside. Who hasn't seen a precast patio block and wished for that kind of finish on the next concrete job? If you were to investigate, you would find that the block was externally vibrated, and you might conclude that the best method of vibration is external. But the method of vibration is not the only consideration.

Vibrational Energy Harvesters
Chemical Engineering Progress
; There are three types of vibrational energy harvesters. The first, magnetic-induction energy harvesters (MIEHs), create voltage in a coil of wire through the movement of a permanent magnet. The relative motion of the magnet within the coil is caused by external vibration. MIEHs work like acoustic
