Disorder-tuned soliton nucleation for vibrational energy harvesting in discrete nonlinear lattices. II. Proof of concept and experimental validation with a piezomagnetic metastructure

This article presents the experimental validation of an energy harvesting approach based on stationary solitons in nonlinear metastructures. Building on the theoretical framework introduced in Part I, this work is an experimental investigation of a reduced-order model governed by the disordered damp
