Abstract

Abstract The magnetically induced multi-stable piezoelectric vibration energy harvesters have garnered significant attention due to their strong nonlinear characteristics, wide operating bandwidths, and high electromechanical energy conversion efficiency. However, a traditional penta-stable design typically requires four rectangular external magnets. The excessive number of structural parameters amplify complexities in system optimization, dynamic analysis, and prototype installation, impeding harvester manufacturing and application. This study presents a novel penta-stable harvester design that utilizes interaction forces among a rectangular magnet and two annular magnets, resulting in a simplified system requiring only two external magnets. This design approach streamlines system design, dynamic analysis, and prototype installation, providing a fresh perspective on magnetic penta-stable vibration energy harvester design. The magnetizing current method is employed to accurately determine the system’s magnetic field and magnetic force. Stability analysis indicates that the multi-stability of the harvester is influenced by both the vertical magnetic force and equivalent linear elastic force, which can be effectively controlled by adjusting the system’s components. Dynamic simulations conducted under Gaussian white noise excitation confirm the penta-stable behavior of the system, and the dynamic responses verify that a shallower potential well depth contributes to the system’s ability to attain a higher output voltage. Experimental validations closely align with simulation results, providing strong evidence for the accuracy of the study’s findings. Furthermore, a practical application experiment demonstrates the harvester’s capability to power a hygrothermograph, highlighting its potential for real-world energy harvesting applications.
