摘要：The type of the generator was chosen to be piezoelectric because it is most widely used to capture the energy of mechanical vibrations and convert it into electricity. A 2D generator model was chosen for the analysis of the dynamics of the energy harvester (VEH) for a free body moving in space at vibro shock mode. The computational schemes of the model are presented. A mathematical model describing the dynamics is developed: generator casing, inertial mass, nonlinear contact/impact. The mathematical model is implemented by the Runge-Kutta numerical method in the Matlab system. Analysis of experimental and modeling results is performed: comparison of generator eigen frequencies, the logarithmic decrement and the damping coefficient – the error is in range of 5%. This generator can be used to collect mechanical energy of water waves, wind, human movements, and other environmental factors in the presence of the body's free movement trajectory in space.
