In this study, the Vortex-Induced Vibration (VIV) of a pivoted cylinder is experimentally investigated as a potential source of energy harvesting. The design of a physical model and a theoretical analysis presented and experimental measurements on the laboratory prototype are reported. In particular, we investigate the effect of the pivot point placement, arm length ratio (L* = l/D) and natural frequency (f(N)) on the VIV performance over a Reynolds number range, 2880
