Probabilistic distribution and stochastic P-bifurcation of a hybrid energy harvester under colored noise

Abstract In this manuscript, a hybrid energy harvesting system combining piezoelectric and electromagnetic transduction and subjected to colored noise is investigated. By using the stochastic averaging method, the stationary probability density functions of amplitudes are obtained and reveal interesting dynamics related to the long term behavior of the device. From stationary probability densities, we discuss the stochastic bifurcation through the qualitative change which shows that noise intensity, correlation time and other system parameters can be treated as bifurcation parameters. Numerical simulations are made for a comparison with analytical findings. The Mean first passage time (MFPT) is numerical provided in the purpose to investigate the system stability. By computing the Mean residence time (TMR), we explore the stochastic resonance phenomenon; we show how it is related to the correlation time of colored noise and high output power.
