Abstract

Global dynamics of a piezoelectric energy harvester with tristable potential is investigated. The dynamical model of a cantilever beam energy harvester is considered; its static bifurcation is also discussed. Multiple intra-well attractors and their basins of attraction are presented to discuss the mechanism of multistability and its initial sensitivity. Moreover, the Melnikov method is applied to present the conditions for global bifurcations and the induced complex dynamics. The results show that the variation of coefficients of the polynomial may affect the number and shapes of potential wells, while the increase of the excitation amplitude may trigger multistability around one equilibrium, initial-sensitive jump, inter-well attractor and chaos. The results may provide some theoretical reference for increasing the working performance of energy harvesters.
