}DYNAMICS OF NONLINEAR SNAP–THROUGH CHAINS WITH APPLICATION TO ENERGY HARVESTING AND WAVE PROPAGATION By Smruti Ranjan Panigrahi There is much current research interest in nonlinear structures, smart materials, and metamaterials, that incorporate bistable, or snap-through, structural elements. Various applications include energy harvesting, energy dissipation, vibration absorption, vibration isolation, targeted energy transfer, bandgap design and metamaterials. In this dissertation, we explore…

Dynamics of periodic mechanical structures containing bistable elastic elements: from elastic to solitary wave propagation.
- EngineeringPhysical review. E, Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics
- 2014
The investigated nonlinear dynamics of a periodic chain of bistable elements consisting of masses connected by elastic springs whose constraint arrangement gives rise to a large-deformation snap-through instability produces three different regimes of wave propagation in the periodic medium, depending on the wave amplitude.
Energy harvesting in the super-harmonic frequency region of a twin-well oscillator
