This paper proposes a geometric nonlinear analytical model of a vortex-induced energy harvester (VIEH) with variable beam width in order to improve the output performance. The analytic method is adopted to establish the geometric nonlinear model of VIEH. Based on the geometric nonlinear analytical m...
