Nonlinear Hybrid Piezoelectric and Electromagnetic Energy Harvesting Driven by Colored Excitation

It is well known that when excited by a stochastic base acceleration, the power absorbed by a nonlinear Duffing-type piezoelectric (PE) or electromagnetic (EM) energy harvester might not be increased effectively compared to a linear one. When intentionally introducing nonlinear magnetic forces into...
