Modeling and Control of Piezoelectric Stack Actuators with Hysteresis [PDF]
, 2013 Piezoelectric actuators are popularly applied as actuators in high precision systems due to their small displacement resolution, fast response and simple construction. However, the hysteresis nonlinear behavior limits the dynamic modeling and tracking control of piezoelectric actuators.

V-stack piezoelectric actuator
SPIE Proceedings, 2001Aeroelastic control of wings by means of a distributed, trailing-edge control surface is of interest with regards to maneuvers, gust alleviation, and flutter suppression. The use of high energy density, piezoelectric materials as motors provides an appealing solution to this problem. A comparative analysis of the state of the art actuators is currently

Review of Scientific Instruments, 2016
For the piezo-driven microgripper, one issue is to enlarge the grasping stroke and realize parallel grasping movement in the compact design. Piezoelectric stack actuator (PSA) and piezoelectric cantilever actuator (PCA) are two kinds of typical piezoelectric actuators. In this study, a novel microgripper hybrid driven by a PSA and two PCAs is proposed,

Piezoelectric stack actuator life test
2011 Aerospace Conference, 2011Future NASA interferometer missions require actuators for precision positioning to accuracies of the order of nanometers. For this purpose, commercially available multilayer piezoelectric stack actuators are being considered for driving these precision positioning mechanisms.

Simulation model of the piezoelectric stack actuator
Proceedings of the 13th International Carpathian Control Conference (ICCC), 2012Piezoactuators become a perspective component for micromechanics and active vibration control. The piezoactuator as a microdrive operates on the principle of the reverse piezoelectric effect. Mechanical properties of the piezoactuators are as follows: high frequency range of operation, small travel range and large applied force.

Comparison of piezoelectric and electrostrictive actuator stacks
SPIE Proceedings, 1992Piezoelectrics have been around for decades as acoustic or sensing components. In the last few years, however, they have seen increasing use as means to provide motion and control in the micron realm, well below the resolution level of mechanical or electromechanical devices. Their high hysteresis (15 - 20%), however, was a problem in some systems, and

Durability Properties of Piezoelectric Stack Actuator
Japanese Journal of Applied Physics, 1998Changes of temperature were measured for stack actuators having various values of E c and bending strength. The increase of temperature was 75°C in the center of low E c stack for a starting environment temperature of 120°C with 130 Hz driving frequency.

A transparent polymeric flexure-hinge nanopositioner, actuated by a piezoelectric stack actuator
Nanotechnology, 2011Nanopositioning using piezoelectric actuation and a flexure mechanism is one of most common methods for nanometre-scale positioning. Generally, flexure mechanism nanopositioners have been made from metal. Thus, their application to various environments needs careful consideration with regard to corrosion and circumference interference.

Compact piezoelectric stacked actuators for high power applications
IEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics and Frequency Control, 2000Small, hollow, multilayer actuators with a diameter of 3 mm were fabricated by the stacking method from piezoelectric hard lead zirconate titanate (PZT) ceramics. Langevin vibrators were also constructed with the hollow multilayer actuators. The performance capabilities of the actuator and Langevin vibrator samples were examined under high-power ...
