1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

In order to make a piezoelectric vibration energy harvester collect more energy on a broader frequency range, nonlinearity is introduced into the system, allowing the harvester to produce multiple steady states and deflecting the frequency response curve. However, the harvester can easily maintain intra-well motion rather than inter-well motion, which seriously affects its efficiency. The aim of this paper is to analyze how to take full advantage of the nonlinear characteristics to widen the bandwidth of the piezoelectric vibration energy harvester and obtain more energy. The influence of the inter-permanent magnet torque on the bending of the piezoelectric cantilever beam is considered in the theoretical modeling. The approximate analytical solutions of the primary and 1/3 subharmonic resonance of the harvester are obtained by using the complex dynamic frequency (CDF) method so as to compare the energy acquisition effect of the primary resonance and subharmonic resonance, determine the generation conditions of subharmonic resonance, and analyze the effect of primary resonance and subharmonic resonance on broadening the bandwidth of the harvester under different external excitations. The results show that the torque significantly affects the equilibrium point and piezoelectric output of the harvester. The effective frequency band of the bistable nonlinear energy harvester is 270% wider than that of the linear harvester, and the 1/3 subharmonic resonance broadens the band another 92% so that the energy harvester can obtain more than 0.1 mW in the frequency range of 18 Hz. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the influence of torque when modeling. The introduction of nonlinearity can broaden the frequency band of the harvester when it is in primary resonance, and the subharmonic resonance can make the harvester obtain more energy in the global frequency range.
