압전소자(Piezoelectric transducer, PZT)는 구조물의 안정성 평가를 목적으로 하는 구조 건전성 모니터링 기법(Structural Health Monitoring, SHM)의 센서(sensor) 및 구동기(actuator)로 많이 활용되고 있다. 사용되는 센서 및 구동기의 성능을 사전에 파악하고, 잔존수명 및 결함을 탐지하는 센서 자가 진단법은 안정적인 SHM의 결과를 얻기 위해 매우 중요한 절차이다. 본 연구에서는 Admittance 값을 기반으로 한 센서 자가 진단절차를 통하여 압전체 센서의 결함을 탐지하였으며, 센서 진단과정에 영향을 줄 수 있는 접합층 및 온도 등의 영향인자에 대해 실험적 분석을 실시하였다. 분석 결과 Admittance와 온도 및 접착제의 상관관계를 파악할 수 있었으며, admittance를 기반으로 한 센서 자가 진단 절차를 통해 센서의 접착상태와 접착제의 성능평가가 가능함을 검증하였다.

In this study, two new types of micro-grippers in which micro-fingers are actuated by piezoelectric multi-layer benders and stacks are introduced for the manipulation of micrometer-sized objects. First, we constructed a 3-chopstick-mechanism tungsten gripper, which is composed of three chopsticks: two are designed to grip micro-objects, and tile third is used to help grasp and release the objects through overcoming especially electrostatic force among some surface effects including electrostatic, van der Waals forces and surface tension. Second, a 2-chopstick-mechanism silicon micro-gripper that uses an integrated force sensor to control the gripping force was developed. The micro-gripper is composed of a piezoelectric multilayer bender for actuating the gripper fingers, silicon fingertips fabricated by use of silicon-based micromachining, and supplementary supports. The micro-gripper is referred to as a hybrid-type micro-gripper because it is composed of two main components; micro-fingertips fabricated using micromachining technology to integrate a very sensitive force sensor for measuring the gripping force, and piezoelectric gripper finger actuators that are capable of large gripping forces and moving strokes. The gripping force signal was found to have a sensitivity of 667 N/V. To the design of each of components of both of the grippers. a systematic design approach was applied, which made it possible to establish the functional requirements and design parameters of the micro-grippers. The micro-grippers were installed on a manual manipulator to assess its performance in tasks such as moving micro-objects from one position to a desired position. The experiment showed that the micro-grippers function effectively.

구조건전성 모니터링은 구조물에 발생된 손상을 조기에 감지 및 적절한 유지보수를 통해 재정적 혹은 인명 피해를 방지하기 위해 실시된다. 대부분의 능동센싱 기반 구조건전성 모니터링에서는 많은 수의 압전체(piezoelectric transducer) 센서와 구동기(actuator)를 필요로 한다. 구조건전성 모니터링 시 사용된 압전센서에 결합이 존재하는 경우, 구조물의 상태진단에 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 신뢰성 있는 구조건전성 모니터링 결과를 위해 임피던스 기반 센서 자가 진단법을 사용하여 다수 센서의 결함을 탐지하였다. 또한 사용된 접착제와 센서의 정보가 충분치 못한 경우, 사용된 센서로부터 측정된 데이터만을 토대로 센서결함 진단을 위한 알고리즘을 소개하였다. 알고리즘이 적용 가능한 온도 범위를 실험적으로 분석함으로써 개발된 기법이 실제 환경에서 응용이 가능함을 확인하였다.

Precision displacement of less than a few nm resolution was measured in real-time using fiber optic EFPI sensor. The novel method for real-time processing of analyzing EFPI output signal was developed and verified. Linearity in the mean values of interferometric light intensity among adjacent fringes was shown and verified the sinusoidal approximation algorithm that estimates past and coming fringe values. Real-time signal processing program was developed and the intensity signal of the EFPI sensor was transformed to the phase shift with this program. The resolution below $0.36{\sim}8.6$ nm in the displacement range of $0{\sim}300{\mu}m$ was obtained. The nano-positioner with a piezoelectric actuator and the EFPI sensor system was designed and tested. The positioner successfully reached to the desired destination within 1 nm accuracy.

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is a type of electroactive polymer which shows significant shape change when exposed to electric field. PVDF is generally used as a film sensor in non-destructive evaluation (NDE) of materials. In this study, however, its properties relevant to film actuator are considered. Since most of the electromechanical applications that use PVDF and its copolymers as actuators use their piezoelectric properties, only the piezoelectric properties of PVDF are discussed here. These properties depend mainly on the degree of crystallinity of PVDF. Available data from recent research publications are used to simulate the response of a PVDF bimorph beam on the application of electric field, by a commercial finite element analysis package ANSYS. Finally, the factors that affect mechanical behavior of PVDF bimorph beam are discussed.

General modeling of a resonant shunting damper has been made from piezoelectric sensor/actuator equation. It is found that an additional damping, which is augmented to a system, is generated by the shunt damping effect. The transfer function of the tuned electrical absorber is derived for both series and parallel shunt circuit. The governing equations and associated boundary conditions are derived using Hamilton's Principle. The shunt voltage equation is also derived from the charge generated in PZT due to beam vibration. The frequency response function of the obtained mathematical model is compared with that of the tuned electrical absorber and experimental work. The vibration amplitude is reduced about 15 dB at targeted second mode frequency.

Stability analysis of three-layered piezoelectric doubly curved nano shell with accounting size dependency is performed in this paper based on first order shear deformation theory and curvilinear coordinate system relations. The elastic core is integrated with sensor and actuator layers subjected to applied electric potentials. The principle of virtual work is employed for derivation of governing equations of stability. The critical electrical and mechanical buckling loads are evaluated in terms of important parameters of the problem such as size-dependent parameter, two principle angle of doubly curved shell and two parameters of Pasternak's foundation. One can conclude that mechanical buckling loads are decreased with increase of nonlocal parameter while the electrical buckling loads are increased.

This study was how to control the mass flow controller in gas supplying system. The flow controller consists of piezoelectric material and sensor with heating wire. It is difficult to obtain accurate model, because MFC was composed of many parts, and the relationship between input and output of controller is nonlinear. The model for control was obtained by time constant and DC gain Based on this model, PID controller was applied to flow controller using DSP board. Also, the results were compared to controller using system identification.

This paper presents the dynamic modeling and control methodology to arrest structural deflections of industrial robotic manipulators featuring elastic members retrofitted with surface bonded pizoelectric actuators and sensors. The cynamic modeling is accomplished by employing a variational theorem, prior to developing a finite element formulation. This finite element formulation accounts for both original robot member elements and also bonded piezoelectric material elements. The governing equation of motion is then modified by condensing the electric potential vectors and subsequently two different negative velocity feedback controllers are established; a constant-gain feedback controller and a constant- amplitude feedback controller. By adopting a Model P50 articulating industrial robot manufactured by Gerneral Electric Company, conputer simulations are underlaken in order to demonstrate superior performance characteristics to be accrued from this proposed methodology such as smaller deflections at the end-effector.

This paper presents an inertia type of piezostack based active mount for unmanned aero vehicle (UAV) camera system. After identifying the stiffness and damping properties of the rubber element and piezostack a mechanical model of the active mount system is established. The governing equation of mount is them derived and expressed in a state space farm. Subsequently, a sliding mode controller which is robust to uncertain parameters is designed in order to reduce the vibration imposed according to the military specification associated with UAV camera mount system operation. Control performances such as acceleration and transmitted force are evaluated through both computer simulation and experimental implementation.
