10-556: A framework to exploit strain gradient-induced polarization in elastic dielectrics for enhanced electricity generation at the nanoscale . Erturk's group also contributed to smart material-based bio-inspired aquatic locomotion by developing the first untethered piezoelectric swimmer and explored fluid-structure interaction via underwater actuation of piezoelectric cantilevers. Their recent efforts resulted in multifunctional piezoelectric concepts for bio-inspired swimming and energy harvesting. Another research topic explored by his group

25-486: Was one of the first researchers to explore nonlinear dynamic phenomena for frequency bandwidth enhancement in energy harvesting, specifically by using a bistable Duffing oscillator with electromechanical coupling, namely the piezomagnetoelastic energy harvester. His early energy harvesting work also included the use of aeroelastic flutter to enable scalable airflow energy harvesting through piezoaeroelastic systems. His collaborative work on flexoelectricity established
