With the rapid development of urban rail transit, the floating slab vibration isolation system has become widely used in the field due to its effective vibration reduction and isolation capabilities. Traditional floating slab vibration-isolation systems mainly focus on blocking vibration transmission, neglecting energy harvesting. This paper proposes a magnetic-coupled double-wing negative stiffness energy harvester for floating slabs. A single-wing piezoelectric beam model and a finite element model of the magnetic-coupled module are established. The modal and output characteristics of the single-wing piezoelectric beam are analyzed. Furthermore, the force characteristics of the magnetically coupled negative stiffness module are analyzed. The results show that the contribution of its width to the modal frequency gradually decreases with an increase in the length of the single-wing piezoelectric beam. The thickness significantly influences the characteristic frequency, and the load is exponentially related to the output power. At the optimal load and characteristic frequency of the single-wing piezoelectric beam, the output characteristics decrease with an increase in the width. The peak value of the magnetic-coupled negative stiffness gradually decreases with an increase in the magnetic gap. The increase in remanent magnetic strength indicates that the initial state of the magnetic ring is more easily affected by external conditions. The change in axial magnetic force becomes significant with increased displacement. This research enriches the theoretical systems of piezoelectric energy harvesting technology and magnetic-coupled negative stiffness mechanism while providing important theoretical support for subsequent experimental research, optimal design, and practical applications.

Atomically thin 2D layered ferroelectric semiconductors, where polarization switching transpires within the channel material itself, are pivotal to advancing the next generation of high-performance electronics. Nevertheless, the challenge remains in either the controllable synthesis of films or the manipulation of associated ferroelectricity. Here, 2D p-type BiCuSeO (BCSO) films with a thickness down to ≈3 nm are successfully synthesized using molecular beam epitaxy.

For ultra-low-frequency vibration applications, this study focuses on a piezoelectric energy harvesting system with a spring mass system, utilizing magnetic plucking to up-convert the frequency. The proposed spring mass system includes a spring, a magnet mass with a guide rail, and a fixed pulley. The spring mass system responds to external ultra-low-frequency excitation and transfers the vibration to the piezoelectric cantilever beam through the magnets, achieving frequency up-conversion.

To address the collaborative demand for low-frequency vibration control and energy recovery, this paper proposes a dual-functional structure integrating low-frequency vibration isolation and broadband energy harvesting. The structure consists of two core components: one is a quasi-zero stiffness (QZS) vibration isolation module composed of a linkage-horizontal spring (negative stiffness) and a vertical spring; the other is an energy-harvesting component with an array of parameter-differentiated piezoelectric cantilever beams. Aiming at the conflict between the structural dynamic stiffness approaching zero and broadening the effective working range, this paper establishes a dual-objective optimization function based on the Pareto principle on the basis of static analysis and uses the grid search method combined with actual working conditions to determine the optimal parameter combination.

The present paper investigates influence of the graphene origami's characteristics and multi-load of piezoelectric materials on the frequency responses of a sandwich curved composed of a Graphene Origami (Gori) reinforced core. The Gori reinforced core is sandwiched with piezoelectric/piezomagnetic layers. A novel higher-order flexible model with thickness stretch-ability is employed for extension of the kinematic relations.
