Electromechanical De-icing of Rectangular Aluminum Plates with Forced Vibration Generated with an Amplified Piezoelectric Actuator

SAE Technical Paper Series, 2023
<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper describes the feasibility of a de-icing device based on forced vibrations induced in an ice-covered rectangular aluminum plate using an amplified piezoelectric actuator. The removal of the ice layer is caused by the creation of mechanical stresses induced by relatively
