Abstract

In this work, synchronization is studied in multi-mass pendulums mounted on a periodically forced elastic structure. Through numerical simulations, anti-phase synchronization was identified as the most efficient for this device distribution, since it minimizes the energy transfer to the supporting structure, thus maximizing the energy conversion potential. This approach opens new possibilities for optimizing wave-driven devices, reducing the need for complex external controls and eventually improving the stability of the responses under non-periodic forcing conditions.
