Modeling Rate-dependent Hysteresis in Piezoelectric Actuator
Hysteresis of a piezoelectric actuator is ratedependent. Most hysteresis models are based on elementary rate-independent operators and are not suitable for modeling actuator behavior across a wide frequency band. This work proposes a rate-dependent modified PrandtlIshlinskii (PI) operator to account for the hysteresis of a piezoelectric actuator at varying frequency. We have shown experimentall...
متن کاملComputational homogenization of fibrous piezoelectric materials
Flexible piezoelectric devices made of polymeric materials are widely used for microand nanoelectro-mechanical systems. In particular, numerous recent applications concern energy harvesting. Due to the importance of computational modeling to understand the influence that microscale geometry and constitutive variables exert on the macroscopic behavior, a numerical approach is developed here for ...
متن کاملFinite Element Modeling of Rate-Dependent Ratcheting in Granular Materials
The present paper introduces a comprehensive model capable of describing the behavior of granular materials under cyclic loading. Its main thrust is the introduction of the “Chicago” law in a continuum approach to account for the ratcheting effects. It also emphasizes the rate-dependency as a dissipative mechanism which acts independently or jointly with the ratcheting effect. Non-associated pl...
متن کاملModeling Piezoelectric Harvesting Materials in Road Traffic Applications
The method to obtain electrical equivalent models of piezoelectric materials used in energy harvesting road traffic environment is presented in this paper. The experimental results are processed in order to determine the optimal topological structure and technology of the semiconductor elements used in the input stage of the power harvesting system. The non regulated power supply model under va...
متن کاملModeling and Analysis of Smart Timoshenko Beams with Piezoelectric materials
In the present work, a finite element model is proposed to describe the response of isotropic and orthotropic beams with piezoelectric actuators due to applied mechanical loads as well as electrical load. The assumed field displacements of the beams are represented by First-order Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT), the Timoshenko beam theory. The equation of motion of the smart beam system is deri...
