Vortex-induced vibration (VIV) is used by piezoelectric energy harvesters to generate electricity from wind and water flow. In this study, we introduce the nonlinear magnetic force into develop a monostable VIV transducer. We build distributed-parameter model based on Euler-Bernoulli beam theory Kirchhof's law analyze dynamic responses of magnetic-coupling harvester (MCPEH). Model results show that performance MCPEH varies greatly with increase load resistance length PZT. There are two...
