Detailed Models of Piezoceramic Actuation of Beams
TL;DR: In this paper, techniques for modeling induced strain actuation of beam-like components of intelligent structures are developed, including two analytical models and one numerical model describing the detailed mechanics of induced strain actuators bonded to and embedded in one-dimensional structures.

Self-sensing piezoelectric actuation - Analysis and application to controlled structures
TL;DR: In this paper, a self-sensing piezoelectric actuator is implemented using an active PDE strut in a truss structure, and the sensitivity of the results to representative errors introduced in the implementation of the transducer is demonstrated analytically and experimentally.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of an active truss element for control of precision structures
TL;DR: In this paper, an active structural element for use in precision control of large space structures is described, which is intended to replace a passive strut in a truss-like structure, and incorporates an eddy current displacement sensor and an actuator that is either piezoelectric (PZT) or electrostrictive (PMN).
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Simultaneous sensing and actuation using piezoelectric materials
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the possibility of using a single piezoelectric element simultaneously as both a structural actuator and collocated sensor for a cantilevered beam with surface mounted piezoceramics.
