We are interested in the amplification of very low voltages produced by solar cells during sunset or weak sunshine. The study uses a device consisting of a Duffing oscillator, which amplifies and automatically regulates a low-voltage input, an inverter that reverses the negative voltage of one of the outputs of the oscillator, and a summing device to add the voltages of the two oscillator outputs. Experimental and theoretical investigations are conducted, and it is observed from the results that the output voltage can reach to 7.03V for an input voltage of 0.43V, i.e. a gain of 24.3dB. Furthermore, we observe from the amplification factor, and the behavior of the cyclic ratio that the whole system nonlinearly amplifies the input voltage with a large factor for weak inputs. We finally compare the results produced by the proposed system and those produced by a conventional boost converter at very low voltages. It then results that the Duffing oscillator provides large amplification factors for low voltages.

The dynamics of the convergence for the stationary state considering a Duffing-like equation are investigated. The driven potential for these dynamics is supplied by a damped forced oscillator that has a piecewise linear function. Fixed points and their basins of attraction were identified and measured.

Data-Driven Response Regime Exploration and Identification (DR2EI) is a novel and fully data-driven method for identifying and classifying response regimes of a dynamical system without requiring human intervention. This approach is a valuable tool for exploring and discovering response regimes in complex dynamical systems, especially when the governing equations and the number of distinct response regimes are unknown, and the system is expensive to sample. Additionally, the method is useful for order reduction, as it can be used to identify the most dominant response regimes of a given dynamical system.

This paper explores the dynamic characteristics and a novel event-triggered practical prescribed-time controller for four complex coupled Duffing-type MEMS resonators. Initially, the effects of mechanical coupling stiffness, electrostatic coupling stiffness, and internal system parameters on the system's dynamic behavior are examined. The analysis results provide guidance for selecting system parameters.
