<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Hello
all,<br>
<br>
We are exploring the feasibility of deploying a piezoelectric application in a
large (approx. 2,00,000 sqft), 9 stories tall, public building coming up in
India.<br>
The building is being planned right now -- currently in the design development
phase rolling fast towards final design and tendering stage(s). It is expected
to see a very high foot fall on the ground and first floor levels and that's
where I need further help. Is there a company available to design and sell an
application or a product that will generate electricity -- perhaps using some
sort of floor tiles?<br>
<br>
Any of you who could help me may write to me directly since this is not a
simulation question.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
