Rotary bistable and Parametrically Excited Vibration Energy Harvesting
Parametric resonance is a type of nonlinear vibration phenomenon [1], [2] induced from the periodic modulation of at least one of the system parameters and has the potential to exhibit interesting higher order nonlinear behaviour [3]. Parametrically excited vibration energy harvesters have been previously shown to enhance both the power amplitude [4] and the frequency bandwidth [5] when compare...
متن کاملNonlinear Response of Parametrically-excited Mems
Due to the position-dependent nature of electrostatic forces, many microelectromechanical (MEM) oscillators inherently feature parametric excitation. This work considers the nonlinear response of one such oscillator, which is electrostatically actuated via non-interdigitated comb drives. Unlike other parametricallyexcited systems, which feature only linear parametric excitation in their equatio...
متن کاملDesign and Optimization of Wideband Multimode Piezoelectric MEMS Vibration Energy Harvesters
To enlarge operating frequency bandwidth of the multimode energy harvesters, nonlinearity characteristics has to be well presented by the system configuration. Therefore, the conventional optimization techniques, which are solely based on human observation, are highly difficult and somehow impossible. In this paper we propose an efficient optimization technique for automating the design of nonl...
متن کاملParametrically Excited Vibration in Rolling Element Bearings
A defect-free rolling element bearing has a varying stiffness. The variation of stiffness depends on number of rolling elements, their configuration and cage frequency. The time-varying characteristics of the stiffness results in a parametric excitation. This may lead to instability which is manifested as high vibration levels. An FEM simulation is performed to evaluate stiffness in each config...
متن کاملConnection Configurations to Increase Operational Range and Output Power of Piezoelectric MEMS Vibration Energy Harvesters
Among the various methods of extracting energy harvested by a piezoelectric vibration energy harvester, full-bridge rectifiers (FBR) are widely employed due to its simplicity and stability. However, its efficiency and operational range are limited due to a threshold voltage that the open-circuit voltage generated from the piezoelectric transducer (PT) must attain prior to any energy extraction....
