Abstract

This paper focuses on the dynamical analysis of the motion of a new three-degree-of-freedom (DOF) system consisting of two segments that are attached together. External harmonic forces energize this system. The equations of motion (EOM) are derived utilizing Lagrangian equations, and the approximate solutions up to the third order are investigated using the methodology of multiple scales. A comparison between these solutions and numerical ones is constructed to confirm the validity of the analytic solutions. The modulation equations (ME) are acquired from the investigation of the resonance cases and the solvability conditions. The bifurcation diagrams and spectrums of Lyapunov exponent are presented to reveal the different types of the system’s motion and to represent Poincaré maps. The piezoelectric transducer is connected to the dynamical system to convert the vibrational motion into electricity; it is one of the energy harvesting devices which have various applications in our practical life like environmental and structural monitoring, medical remote sensing, military applications, and aerospace. The influences of excitation amplitude, natural frequency, coupling coefficient, damping coefficient, capacitance, and load resistance on the output voltage and power are performed graphically. The steady-state solutions and stability analysis are discussed through the resonance curves.
