Hysteresis nonlinearity of piezoelectric actuator deteriorates its control performance. Unlike traditional model-based control scheme, this paper employs a novel adaptive control algorithm without modeling of hysteresis to achieve a precise tracking control. The piezoelectric actuator system in question consists of models in the form of a linear time-invariant dynamic system in series with a di...

In the literature, the generalized Bouc-Wen model can track precisely asymmetric hysteresis nonlinearity. In this paper, we propose to extend this generalized model to multivariable hysteresis model that can track the nonlinearities in multi-degrees of freedom (multi-DoF) hysteretic actuated systems. In particular, these systems are typified by strong hysteresis couplings. Then, a method of ide...

This paper describes a method for the design of compensators able to reduce hysteresis in transducers, as well as two measures to quantify and compare controller performance. Rate independent hysteresis, as represented by the Preisach model of hysteresis, is seen as an input–output phase lag. The compensation is based on controllers derived from the “phaser,” a unitary gain operator that shifts...

MNOS memory hysteresis and memory window are simulated by calculation of tunneling probability via the potential barrier to the nitride conductance or valence band, or to Si nanocrystals embedded in the dielectric layers. The effect of the oxide and nitride current levels are studied. The memory hysteresis width depends strongly on the oxide current level. If the oxide current is close to the n...

A modeling technique for rate-independent ~quasistatic! scalar magnetic hysteresis is presented, using neural networks. Based on the theory of dynamic systems and the wiping-out and congruency properties of the classical scalar Preisach hysteresis model, the choice of a feed-forward neural network model is motivated. The neural network input parameters at each time step are the corresponding ma...

Piezoelectric ceramic actuators have wide application prospects in precision positioning and measurement technology, but its hysteresis characteristics cause a lot of restrictions to their applications. To solve this problem, this paper summary the hysteresis characteristic of piezoelectric ceramics, and collect the data through the experiment, analyze and research the piezoelectric ceramic hys...

Research into organic field effect transistors (OFETs) has made significant advances—both scientifically and technologically—during the last decade, and the first products will soon enter the market. Printed electronic circuits using organic resistors, diodes and transistors may become cheap alternatives to silicon-based systems, especially in large-area applications. A key parameter for device...

In this paper feedforward controller is designed to eliminate nonlinear hysteresis behaviors of a piezoelectric stack actuator (PSA) driven system. The control design is based on inverse Prandtl-Ishlinskii (P-I) hysteresis model identified using particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique. Based on the identified P-I model, both the inverse P-I hysteresis model and feedforward controller can be...

Control of nonlinear systems preceded by unknown hysteresis nonlinearities is a challenging task. In the literature, many mathematical models have been proposed to describe the hysteresis. The challenge addressed here is how to fuse those hysteresis models with available robust control techniques to have the basic requirement of stability of the system. The purpose of the paper is to show such ...

This paper presents the development and initial results of a controller based on a novel rate-dependent hysteresis model. The controller has been developed for “Micron,” a microsurgical instrument designed to sense and actively cancel tremor and other undesired motion during vitreoretinal intervention. To accomplish this, Micron uses a three-degree-of-freedom parallel manipulator with piezoelec...
