Patch-type Self-sensing Actuator Using PZT and EFPI for Vibration Control

open access: yes, 2004
For vibration control applications, a collocated seneor and actuator is generally desired. In addition, a self-sensing actuator is attractive from the viewpoint of instrumentation minimization.

Monitoring actuator failures for a large transprot aircraft - the nominal case [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We consider the problem of designing residual generators with least dynamical orders to solve actuator fault detection and isolation problems for a generic large transport aircraft.

Crone control of a nonlinear hydraulic actuator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The CRONE control (fractional robust control) of a hydraulic actuator whose dynamic model is nonlinear is presented. An input-output linearization under diffeomorphism and feedback is first achieved for the nominal plant.

Proof of Principle of a Rotating Actuator Based on Magnetostrictive Material with Simultaneous Vibration Amplitude

open access: yes, 2020
Magnetostrictive materials are a group of smart materials with comparable properties to piezoelectric materials regarding strain and operating frequency. In contrast, the Curie temperature is much higher and the principle effect allows different actuator

Nonlinear vibrations of a stroke-saturated inertial actuator

open access: yes, 2013
Proof-mass actuators are typically used to supply an external control force to a structure,for the purpose of vibration suppression. These devices comprise a proof-mass suspended in a magnetic field that is accelerated in order to provide a reaction ...
