TL;DR: In this paper, a bi-laminate, Galfenol-driven composite beam was designed and modeled in which the elasticity of the adhesive layer was considered and the optimal thickness ratio necessary to maximize the tip deflection was found by minimizing the internal energy of the beam.

TL;DR: In this article, a fully coupled, nonlinear model for the dynamic response of Galfenol-driven unimorph actuators in a cantilever configuration is presented, where the hysteretic magnetomechanical behavior of Gal...

TL;DR: In this paper, a dynamic distributed parameter model is presented to describe the system dynamics of a galfenol bending actuator, and a dynamic real-time control strategy is proposed to compensate for hysteresis.

TL;DR: A dynamic model is presented by coupling the structural dynamics of a Galfenol-driven unimorph beam with the magnetostriction generated by the active layer to guarantee Lyapunov stability at different frequencies, without changing the initial parameters of the controller.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new approach considering the nonlinearity of the electric core is proposed to analyze the magnetic field and magnetic force of 3D electromagnetic contactors, where the measured constitutive law is incorporated with the weak form equation by numerical interpolation.
