Investigation of Nonlinear Piezoelectric Energy Harvester for Low-Frequency and Wideband Applications [PDF]
This paper proposes a monostable nonlinear Piezoelectric Energy Harvester (PEH). The harvester is based on an unconventional exsect-tapered fixed-guided spring design, which introduces nonlinearity into the system due to the bending and stretching of the

Magnetic Bistability for a Wider Bandwidth in Vibro-Impact Triboelectric Energy Harvesters [PDF]
Mechanical energy from vibrations is widespread in the ambient environment. It may be harvested efficiently using triboelectric generators. Nevertheless, a harvester’s effectiveness is restricted because of the limited bandwidth.

Static and Dynamic Analysis of a Bistable Frequency Up-Converter Piezoelectric Energy Harvester [PDF]
Using energy harvesting to convert ambient vibrations efficiently to electrical energy has become a worthy concept in recent years. Nevertheless, the low frequencies of the ambient vibrations cannot be effectively converted to power using traditional ...

Varying the direction of propagation in reaction-diffusion equations in periodic media [PDF]
We consider a multidimensional reaction-diffusion equation of either ignition or monostable type, involving periodic heterogeneity, and analyze the dependence of thepropagation phenomena on the direction.

Existence and Uniqueness of Solutions to a Nonlocal Equation with Monostable Nonlinearity [PDF]
Let $J \in C(\mathbb{R})$, $J\ge 0$, $\int_{\tiny$\mathbb{R}$} J = 1$ and consider the nonlocal diffusion operator $\mathcal{M}[u] = J \star u - u$. We study the equation $\mathcal{M} u + f(x,u) = 0$, $u \ge 0$, in $\mathbb{R}$, where $f$ is a KPP-type ...

This article focuses on the nonplanar traveling fronts of degenerate monostable time periodic reaction-diffusion equations in Rn with n≥3. By constructing a couple of proper supersolution and subsolution, we prove the existence of periodic pyramidal traveling front in R3 and then in Rn with n>3.

Robust design optimization of a nonlinear monostable energy harvester with uncertainties [PDF]
AbstractBased on the improved interval extension, a robust optimization method for nonlinear monostable energy harvesters with uncertainties is developed. In this method, the 2nd order terms in the interval extension formula of the objective function (output voltage) are kept so this approach is suitable for a nonlinear energy harvesting system.

Nonlocal anisotropic dispersal with monostable nonlinearity
We study the travelling wave problem J\astu - u - cu' + f (u) = 0 in R, u(-\infty) = 0, u(+\infty) = 1 with an asymmetric kernel J and a monostable nonlinearity. We prove the existence of a minimal speed, and under certain hypothesis the uniqueness of the profile for c = 0. For c = 0 we show examples of nonuniqueness.
