Abstract: Constructing a neuromorphic electromechanical system based on a flexible memristor is of great significance for the development of biomimetic electrical-mechanical transverters. A bioinspired electromechanical system can perform real-time energy-efficient processing of multimodal signals, including electrical activities and mechanical motions. Here, we propose a bioinspired electromechanical system composed of a two-disc dynamo driven by a dual integrate-and-fire neuron. A memristive system exists in the bioinspired electromechanical system, as observed in the current–voltage relationship. The neuromorphic electromechanical model can exhibit a multiscroll hidden attractor by adjusting a controllable parameter. Complex chaotic behaviors have been demonstrated by numerical simulations, including two-parameter bifurcation, Lyapunov exponents, and phase diagrams. Finally, the applicability of a chaotic encryption scheme is successfully implemented on a neuromorphic electromechanical system.
