This study presents the design optimization and semi-active resonance control of a small-scale vortex-induced vibration (VIV) bladeless wind turbine (BWT) equipped with a power efficient binary resonance controller. The proposed system integrates a smart-material-based stiffness-tuning module that adaptively adjusts the structure frequency of the BWT to match varying wind speeds. A coupled mechanical–electromagnetic model for BWT was formulated to quantify the relationships among key design parameters, including mast geometry, pivot length, and rod dimensions, and the resulting induced voltage. Multi-parameter optimization was performed to maximize energy-harvesting efficiency under mass and geometric constraints. Experimental evaluation verified an 88.9 % resonance shift capability, broadening the operational lock-in wind speed range from 1.7 to 3.2 m/s. The results confirm the potential of the semi-active BWT control concept for compact, low-noise, and adaptive wind-energy harvesters.
