“…To overcome this issue, different studies in the literature propose the adoption of frequency up-conversion [ 17 ], which can be achieved via the non-linear behaviour of structural elements [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 , 20 ], buckling [ 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 ], and magnetic interaction [ 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 ]. In other cases, with the purpose of increasing the scavenged energy, arrays of resonant converters are proposed [ 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 ], and the adoption of special metamaterials is introduced [ 33 , 34 , 35 ]. On the other hand, for ultra-low ambient frequency, dry reciprocating friction is exploited [ 36 ].…”
