This paper investigates the design and analysis of a novel energy harvesting device. The governing equations for the mechanical and electrical domains are derived to show the designed system reduces to the form of a Duffing oscillator under both static and dynamic loads. Theoretical investigations are followed by a series of experimental tests that validate the response predictions. The motivating question for the current work was whether nonlinear phenomenon could be exploited to improve the effectiveness of an energy harvesting device.
