Internal model-based feedback control design for inversion-free feedforward rate-dependent hysteresis compensation of piezoelectric cantilever actuat…
2018
Abstract This study proposes a new rate-dependent feedforward compensator for compensation of hysteresis nonlinearities in smart materials-based actuators without considering the analytical inverse model. The proposed rate-dependent compensator is constructed with the inverse multiplicative structure of the rate-dependent Prandtl–Ishlinskii (RDPI) model. The study also presents an investigation for the compensation error when the proposed compensator is applied in an open-loop feedforward manner. Then, an internal model-based feedback control design is applied with the proposed feedforward compensator to a piezoelectric cantilever actuator. The experimental results illustrate that the propo…
Optimal Design of Piezoelectric Cantilevered Actuators for Charge-Based Self-Sensing Applications
2019
Charge-based Self-Sensing Actuation (SSA) is a cost and space-saving method for accurate piezoelectric based-actuator positioning. However, the performance of its implementation resides in the choice of its geometry and the properties of the constituent materials. This paper intends to analyze the charge-based SSA&rsquo
Quasi-Static Displacement Self-Sensing Measurement for a 2-DOF Piezoelectric Cantilevered Actuator
2017
This paper proposes a self-sensing measurement technique to perform the precise estimation of the displacements along two axes in a two-degrees-of-freedom (2-DOF) piezoelectric actuator. For that, a new electrical circuit scheme that permits charge amplification is first proposed to match the different electrodes combination of the 2-DOF actuator. Then, a new bivariable observer that precisely estimates the displacements is calculated and implemented experimentally in a cascade with the electrical circuit to complete the self-sensing. The experimental tests and results verification with external sensors revealed that the measured displacements given by the developed self-sensing measurement…
