An Intelligent Piezoelectric System Integrating Self‐Sensing and Autonomous Operation for Adaptive Vibration Control

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
An intelligent piezoelectric vibration control system integrating self‐sensing, autonomous operation, and adaptive bias‐flip synchronized switching damping (SSD) is developed. The system detects vibration extrema, executes synchronized switching control, and autonomously establishes the bias voltage without external sensing instruments, achieving ...
