MMVW04 - Modelling non-Markov Movement Processes

Harvesting energy from the environment is a central task in many applications, where random fluctuations possibly arising from disparate sources at different scales, can be converted into work. Here we show that a non-Markovian linear Langevin equation can very well describe different energy harvester systems, such as piezoelectric and electromagnetic devices driven by broadband random vibrations. We show that fluctuations [1] and temporal correlations [2] of the extracted power are successfully predicted by the model and that the non-equilibrium behaviour can be inferred when the coupled dynamics of the system can be measured [3].
