Abstract


The paper presents an improved hybrid tri-stable cantilever piezoelectric energy harvester based on rotational motion, thus providing a new perspective for achieving higher efficiency in energy capture for rotational motion. The proposed system comprises a piezoelectric cantilever beam with an innovative dynamic amplifier installed at the edge of a vehicle's wheel hub. Through theoretical analysis and numerical simulations, the influence of parameters such as the mass of the tip magnetic on the piezoelectric beam, the wheel hub radius, rotational speed, and the ratio of the dynamic amplifier's spring stiffness are investigated with respect to the system's steady-state dynamic response and time-domain performance. A comparative analysis is also conducted with traditional tri-stable piezoelectric energy harvesters. The results demonstrate that the hybrid tri-stable piezoelectric energy harvester exhibits superior performance in capturing vibrational energy during rotational motion, compared to traditional tri-stable piezoelectric energy harvesters. Proper adjustments to the mass of the tip magnetic and the internal spring stiffness of the dynamic amplifier can enhance the system's output voltage and the rotational speed range of inter-well motion. Additionally, the rotational speed range of inter-well motion increases with the expansion of the wheel hub radius. However, when the rotational speed is below 100 rpm, the influence of varying the wheel hub radius on the system's output voltage is minimal.
