Abstract
This paper investigates the dual-functional broadband properties of an asymmetric piezoelectric metamaterial beam for simultaneous vibration reduction and energy harvesting. Firstly, a grading method is proposed, and an asymmetric piezoelectric metamaterial beam structure model with the gradient mode is established. The effects of various gradient modes on the grading parameters of each segment are examined. Subsequently, the band structure and group velocity of each segment are examined to elucidate the propagation and energy harvesting mechanisms for the bending-dominated wave. Furthermore, the evaluation criteria for dual-functional properties in the gradient mode are introduced, revealing the broadening law of the dual-functional band under various gradient modes. Finally, the theoretical results are analyzed and compared with the finite element method (FEM). The results show that…
