Abstract:In this article, we propose the modelling of a tunable Bistable Piezoelectric Energy Harvester (or BPEH) architecture. The former is a type of ambient energy converters that continue to gain attention due to their wideband frequency response. As the non-linear dynamics of BPEHs imply significant modeling complexity, dynamic lumped models are necessary to predict BPEHs’ dynamic response and should fit the type of architecture studied. The BPEH architecture of interest uses post-buckled beams to create bistabili… Show more
