Journal ArticleDOI
Modular bimorph mirrors for adaptive optics
Gonçalo Rodrigues,Renaud Bastaits,Stéphane Roose,Yvan Stockman,Sylvia Gebhardt,Andreas Schoenecker,Pierre Villon,André Preumont +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the possibility of constructing deformable mirrors for adaptive optics with a large number of degrees of freedom from silicon wafers with bimorph piezoelectric actuation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parallel Piezoelectric Shunt Damping of Rotationally Periodic Structures
Bilal Mokrani,Renaud Bastaits,Mihaita Horodinca,Iulian Ilie Romanescu,Ioanica Burda,R. Viguié,André Preumont +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the RL shunt damping of rotationally periodic structures with an array of regularly spaced piezoelectric patches and proposed a modal filter in parallel loops.
Synchronized Switch Damping on Inductor and Negative Capacitance
TL;DR: In this article, a negative capacitance was added to the resonant circuit to dissipate the energy converted by a piezoelectric transducer embedded in the structure of the structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synchronized Switch Damping on Inductor and Negative Capacitance
TL;DR: In this article, a strategy for enhancing the performance of the synchronized switch damping on inductor technique used for the semi-active control of structural vibrations is presented, which is a strategy that enhances the overall performance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unimorph mirror for adaptive optics in space telescopes.
David Alaluf,Renaud Bastaits,Kainan Wang,Mihaita Horodinca,Gregory Martic,Bilal Mokrani,André Preumont +6 more
TL;DR: A unimorph deformable mirror intended to be used as secondary corrector in space telescopes and a robust way to face thermal distortion, inherent to unimorph architecture are presented.
