TL;DR: A comprehensive review of recent studies on the bio-inspired isolators is provided in this paper, where the authors classified the key isolation mechanisms into three categories according to different dominant forces: stiffness adjustment mechanism, auxiliary mass mechanism, and damping mechanism, respectively.

TL;DR: Inspired by the cushioning effect of the felid paws in contact with the ground, a novel bio-inspired toe-like structure (TLS) was developed and systematically studied for low-frequency vibration isolation.

TL;DR: In this article, a novel dynamically synergistic regulation mechanism is proposed for rotation energy harvesting under the guidance of the dynamic regulation evolution, which includes nonlinear magnetic force and variable stiffness (centrifugal stiffening effect and penalty stiffness of adaptive-anastomotic barricades) synergistically regulate the dynamic behavior of the system.

TL;DR: In this paper, a magnetically modulated rotational energy harvester (MMR-EH) was proposed for low frequency and irregular vibration, where a movable magnet can be non-contact modulated by the magnetic force to move along the ring route under irregular vibration.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors proposed a novel maximal utilization strategy for piezoelectric-electromagnetic-tribolectric energy harvesting in a broad speed range and achieved the self-powered rotor condition monitoring system.
