This paper presents a hybrid actuator scheme to actively control the end-point position and vibration of a two-link flexible robot arm. Control scheme consists of four different actuators; two servo-motors at the hubs and two piezoceramics bonded to the surfaces of the flexible links. Two sliding hyperplanes are designed for two servo-motors which have time varying parameters to maintain control performance in any configuration. The surface gradients of the hyperplanes are determined by pole assignment technique to guarantee the stability on the hyperplanes themselves. During the motion, undesirable oscillations caused by the torques based on the rigid link dynamics are actively suppressed by applying feedback control voltages to the piezoceramic actuators. Consequently, desired tip motion is achieved. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology, experiments are performed for the regulating and tracking control problems.

In order to investigate the interface debonding defects detection mechanism between steel tube and concrete core of concrete-filled steel tubes (CFSTs), multi-physical fields coupling finite element models constituted of a surface mounted Piezoceramic Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) actuator, an embedded PZT sensor and a circular cross section of CFST column are established. The stress wave initiation and propagation induced by the PZT actuator under sinusoidal and sweep frequency excitations are simulated with a two dimensional (2D) plain strain analysis and the difference of stress wave fields close to the interface debonding defect and within the cross section of the CFST members without and with debonding defects are compared in time domain. The linearity and stability of the embedded PZT response under sinusoidal signals with different frequencies and amplitudes are validated. The relationship between the amplitudes of stress wave and the measurement distances in a healthy CFST cross section is also studied. Meanwhile, the responses of PZT sensor under both sinusoidal and sweep frequency excitations are compared and the influence of debonding defect depth and length on the output voltage is also illustrated. The results show the output voltage signal amplitude and head wave arriving time are affected significantly by debonding defects. Moreover, the measurement of PZT sensor is sensitive to the initiation of interface debonding defects. Furthermore, wavelet packet analysis on the voltage signal under sweep frequency excitations is carried out and a normalized wavelet packet energy index (NWPEI) is defined to identify the interfacial debonding. The value of NWPEI attenuates with the increase in the dimension of debonding defects. The results help understand the debonding defects detection mechanism for circular CFST members with PZT technique.

$(1-x)Bi_{0.5}(Na_{0.78}K_{0.22})_{0.5}TiO_3-xLaFeO_3$ ceramics were fabricated using a solid state reaction method. The microstructural, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and polarization hysteresis loops (P-E). XRD results indicated that BNKT ceramic crystal structure modified by $LaFeO_3$ was transformed from a ferroelectric tetragonal to a non-polar pesudo-cubic phase with increased $LaFeO_3$ content. The improved piezoelectric properties resulted from the addition of $LaFeO_3$ up to 3 mol%. The $LaFeO_3$ 3mol% sample showed markedly improved piezoelectric and strain behaviors in comparison with pure BNKT ceramic.

본 연구에서는 고상단결정법으로 성장시킨 PMN-32%PT 단결정의 모든 물성을 공진법을 이용하여 측정하였다. tetragonal 결정구조의 PMN-PT는 독립적인 물성으로 6개의 탄성상수, 3개의 압전상수, 2개의 유전상수를 가진다. 이상의 값들을 서로 다른 형태를 가진 6종류의 시편을 만들어 임피던스 분석기를 이용하여 각각의 시편의 진동모드별 전기임피던스를 측정하여 구하였다. 측정결과 일반 압전세라믹 보다 큰 전기기계결합계수 k/sub 33/ (∼85%)과 압전계수 d/sub 33/ (∼1200pC/N)을 가짐을 확인하였다. 측정한 값의 타당성은 측정시편의 유한요소해석을 통한 임피던스 스펙트럼과 상용 d/sub 33/ -meter측정결과와의 비교를 통해 확인하였다.

Ultrasonic motors provide high torques and quick responses compared to their magnetic counterparts; therefore, they are widely used in small-scale applications such as mobile phones, microrobots, and auto-focusing modules in digital cameras. To determine the feasibility of lead-free piezoceramics for ultrasonic motor applications, we fabricated a ring-type piezoceramic with a KNN-based lead-free piezoceramic (referred to as CZ5), intended for use in an auto-focusing module of a digital camera. The vibration of the lead-free stator was observed at 45.1 kHz. It is noteworthy that the fully assembled lead-free ultrasonic motor exhibited a revolution speed of 5-7 rpm, even though impedance matching with neighboring components was not considered. This result suggests that the tested KNN-based piezoceramic has great potential for use in ultrasonic motor applications, requiring minimal modifications to existing lead-based systems.

본 논문에서는 복합재료 패널 플러터를 억제할 수 있는 두 가지 방법에 대해서 연구하였다. 첫번째, 능동제어 방법에서는 선형 제어 이론을 바탕으로 제어기를 설계하였으며 제어입력이 작동기에 가해진다. 여기서 작동기로는 PZT를 사용하였다. 두 번째, 인덕터와 저항으로 구성되어진 션트회로를 사용하여 시스템의 감쇠를 증가시킴으로써 패널 플러터를 억제할 수 있는 새로운 방법인 수동감쇠기법에 대한 연구가 수행되었다. 이 수동감쇠기법은 능동적 제어보다 강건(robust)하며 커다란 전원 공급이 필요하지 않고 제어기나 감지 시스템과 같이 복잡한 주변 기기가 필요 없이도 실제 패널 플러터 억제에 쉽게 응용할 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 최대의 작동력/감쇠 효과를 얻기 위해서 유전자 알고리듬을 사용하여 압전 세라믹의 형상과 위치를 결정하였다. 해밀턴 원리를 사용해서 지배 방정식을 유도하였으며, 기하학적 대변형을 고려하기 위해 von-Karman의 비선형 변형률-변위 관계식을 사용하였으며 공기력 이론으로는 준 정상 피스톤 1차 이론을 사용하였다. 4절점 4각형 평판 요소를 이용하여 이산화된 유한 요소 방정식을 유도하였다. 효율적인 플러터 억제를 위해 패널 플러터에 중요한 영향을 미치는 플러터 모드를 이용한 모드축약기법을 사용하였으며, 이를 통해 비선형 연계 모달 방정식이 얻어지게 된다. 능동적 제어 방법과 수동 감쇠 기법에 의해 수행되어진 플러터 억제 결과들을 Newmark 비선형 시분할 적분법을 통해 시간 영역에서 살펴 보았다.

This study investigated the structural, dielectric, ferroelectric, and strain properties of (0.98-x)Bi1/2Na1/2TiO3-0.02BiFeO3-xSrTiO3 (BNT-BF-100xST, x＝0.20, 0.22, 0.24, 0.26, and 0.28). All samples were successfully synthesized using the conventional solid-state reaction method and sintered at 1,175℃ for 2 h. The average grain size of the BNT-BF-100x ceramics decreased with increasing ST content. Furthermore, we observed that the ferroelectric- relaxor transition temperature (TF-R) decreased with increasing ST content, which eventually vanished in the BNT-BF-24ST ceramics. The results indicated that a ferroelectric to relaxor phase transition could be induced by ST modification. Consequently, a large electromechanical strain of 633 pm/V at 4 kV/mm was observed for the BNT-BF-26ST ceramics. These results imply that our materials have the competitive advantage of larger strain under lower operating field conditions compared with other BNT-based lead-free piezoelectric ceramics. We expect that BNT-BF-ST lead-free piezoelectric ceramics are promising candidates as a novel ternary BNT-based system and can find potential applications in actuators.
