Access to electricity has become a major problem. In the process of solving this problem we should consider even a small source of electricity. Piezotyres are made to produce electricity from vehicle tyres. For this we have used a piezoelectric property, one of the natural wonder. COMSOL Multiphysics® was used to design and simulate it virtually. We have used different materials in the software for designing. We successfully generated electricity from vehicle tyres. We have changed different materials and shapes in simulation. By using piezotyres we can produce electricity in vehicles on the go. The main application of this product is electric cars.
