  text: This paper presents a general model based on the electromechanical circuit
    theory. The model is set up as a mechanical equivalent model for base excited
    systems and describes the behaviour of a piezoelectric element around one resonance
    frequency which is sufficient for most practical applications. The model is extended
    to obtain the influence of geometrical and material properties. The derivated
    properties are used to describe the parameters of the general model which is easy
    to handle. Using this model either the calculation of the output power on a specific
    electric load or the determination of the design of the used piezoelectric element
    for a needed electric output power is possible. The paper focuses on the design
    of the ratio of length and width of a piezoelectric bimorph. The validity of the
    model is shown by the comparison of computed and experimental results.
