An elliptical rail–mass–spring mechanism to realize multi-stable circulation motion for electromagnetic-energy harvesting

This study proposes an elliptical rail–mass–spring mechanism to realize multi-stable circulation motion for electromagnetic energy harvesting. Unlike the conventional bistable vibration model, the moveable body can jump between multiple potential energy wells. Correspondingly, the elliptical rail–ma...
