Abstract

Journal of Vibration and Control, Ahead of Print.
Due to drawbacks such as bulkiness in slider-mass systems and nonlinear effects in magnetic-tuning systems, a geared-motor-driven system is seen as a solution to overcome these issues in vibration energy harvesters. This paper presents a novel tunable ...
