RESUMEN
In the recurrence quantification analysis of a dynamical system, the key parameters of the analysis significantly influence the qualitative changes in recurrence measures. Therefore, the values of these parameters must be selected carefully using appropriate rules. The embedding parameters provide rules and procedures for the determination of the above. However, rules for selecting the threshold parameter (É) are still the subject of tests and studies. This study proposes a procedure for selecting appropriate values of É and point density of a vector series based on variability and convergence criteria. A criterion for the linear convergence of recurrence results makes it possible to find a narrow range of the É parameter that would be suitable for the analysis in question.
RESUMEN
The use of bistable laminates is a potential approach to realize broadband piezoelectric based energy harvesting systems. In this paper the dynamic response of a piezoelectric material attached to a bistable laminate plate is examined based on the experimental generated voltage time series. The system was subjected to harmonic excitations and exhibited single-well and snap-through vibrations of both periodic and chaotic character. To identify the dynamics of the system response we examined the frequency spectrum, bifurcation diagrams, phase portraits, and the 0-1 test.
