Abstract

Focusing on multiple attractors wind-induced vibration energy harvesting system with unilateral impact under the excitation of Gaussian white noise, the stochastic response characteristics, and energy harvesting performance of the systems are presented and discussed. The stochastic averaging of the energy envelope and a conversion mechanism for decoupling the electromechanical equations are introduced to derive the theoretical probability density functions. Numerical simulation results are given to verify the correctness of such theoretical methods. Effects of the noise intensity, restitution coefficient, time constant ratio and coupling coefficient on the mean square voltage are analyzed. It is found that increments of the restitution coefficient and the piezoelectric coupling coefficient of the electrical part have a positive effect on the output voltage of the system, while other factors are opposite. Analysis can help explain the physical mechanisms of the system and provide ideas for optimizing energy harvesting performance by properly tuning the coefficients.
