Abstract

In order to accurately model the hysteresis and dynamic characteristics of piezoelectric stack actuators (PSAs), consider that a linear force and a hysteresis force will be generated by piezoelectric wafers under the voltage applied to a PSA, and the total force suffering from creep will result in the forced vibration of the two-degree-of-freedom mass-spring-damper system composed of the equivalent mass, stiffness, and damping of the piezoelectric wafers and the bonding layers. A modified comprehensive model for PSAs is put forward by using a linear function, an asymmetrical Bouc-Wen hysteresis operator, and a creep function to model the linear force, the hysteresis force, and the creep characteristics, respectively. In this way, the effect of the bonding layers on the hysteresis and dynamic characteristics of PSAs can be analyzed via the modified comprehensive model. The experimental results show that the modified comprehensive model for PSAs with the corresponding parameter identification method can accurately portray the hysteresis and dynamic characteristics of PSAs fabricated by different layering/stacking processes. Finally, the theoretical analyzing on utilizing the modified comprehensive model to linearize the hysteresis characteristics and design the dynamic characteristics of PSAs is given.

1. Introduction

In the two decades, piezoelectric actuators have been widely used in many smart structures [1–3]. However, the displacement output of single-wafer piezoelectric actuators is relatively small, and piezoelectric stack actuators (PSAs) are an alternative to increase the displacement output with high resolution and high positioning accuracy. PSAs are realized by layering/stacking multichip piezoelectric wafers in series mechanically and connecting electrodes in parallel electrically. The layering/stacking processes of multichip piezoelectric wafers can be categorized as three types: gluing piezoelectric wafers and electrodes, sintering piezoelectric wafers and electrodes layer by layer, and direct sintering piezoelectric wafers and electrodes as a whole (the cofired technology).

In order to explain the influence of layering/stacking processes on the properties of PSAs, provide reference for designing PSAs with high-performance, and effectively and accurately control the displacement output of PSAs, it is very meaningful to accurately model the hysteresis and dynamic characteristics of PSAs.

However, the current literatures indicated that the existing researches are mainly focused on hysteresis models for PSAs, such as the Preisach model [4–7], the Prandtl-Ishlinskii model [8, 9], the Polynomial model [10, 11], the Neural Network model [12, 13], the Maxwell model [14, 15], the Duhem model [16], the LuGre model [17, 18], the differential model [19], and the Bouc-Wen model [19–21]. These hysteresis models for PSAs can only simulate the hysteresis characteristics of PSAs. When simulating the dynamic characteristics of a PSA, the PSA is generally considered as a single-degree-of-freedom (DOF) mass-spring-damper system composed of the equivalent mass, damping, and stiffness of the PSA [17, 18, 22, 23]. However, due to ignoring the bonding layers, this method cannot reflect the properties differences of PSAs with different layering/stacking processes.

In this paper, a modified comprehensive model for PSAs and a corresponding parameter identification method will be put forward and experimentally verified. In Section 2, consider that a linear force and a hysteresis force will be generated by piezoelectric wafers under the applied voltage to a PSA, and the total force suffering from creep will result in the forced vibration of the two-degree-of-freedom (2-DOF) mass-spring-damper system composed of the equivalent mass, stiffness, and damping of the piezoelectric wafers and the bonding layers. A modified comprehensive model for PSAs is put forward by using a linear function, an asymmetrical Bouc-Wen hysteresis operator, and a creep function to model the linear force, the hysteresis force, and the creep characteristics, respectively. In Section 3, through separating the linear component of the proposed modified comprehensive model from the hysteresis component, the parameter identification method is established through identifying the parameters for the linear and hysteresis components separately by the limit theorem of Laplace transformation and the least-squares method, respectively. In Section 4, the performance of the proposed modified comprehensive model with the corresponding parameter identification method is experimentally verified by the established experimental setup. In Section 5, the applications of the modified comprehensive model are discussed. In Section 6, some conclusions are drawn.

2. Modified Comprehensive Model for PSAs

Figure 1 shows the schematic representation of PSAs. Observing Figure 1, a PSA is composed of piezoelectric wafers, electrodes, and bonding layers, the multichip piezoelectric wafers are layered/stacked by the bonding layers in series mechanically, and the electrodes are connected in parallel electrically. Because the mechanical properties of the piezoelectric wafers are similar to those of the electrodes, they can be considered as a whole, when modeling the dynamic characteristics of a PSA.

Consider that a linear force and a hysteresis force will be generated by piezoelectric wafers under the applied voltage to a PSA, and the total force, which has suffered from creep, will result in the forced vibration of the 2-DOF mass-spring-damper system composed of the equivalent mass, stiffness, and damping of the piezoelectric wafers and the bonding layers. On this basis, the modified comprehensive model for PSAs is shown in Figure 2 and can be expressed aswhere and are the linear and hysteresis forces generated by the PSA, respectively; and are the linear and hysteresis functions to model the linear and hysteresis forces generated by the PSA with the applied voltage, respectively; is the total force; is the creep function to model the creep characteristics; , , and are the equivalent mass, damping, and stiffness of the piezoelectric wafers, respectively; is the displacement output of the bonding layers; and are the first and second order derivatives of with respect to time, respectively; , , and are the equivalent mass, damping, and stiffness of the bonding layers, respectively; is the displacement output of the PSA; and are the first and second order derivatives of with respect to time, respectively.

According to (1)–(5) and Figure 2, the modified comprehensive model for PSAs can be considered as an electric model in series with a mechanical model, and the electric model can be considered as a hysteresis model in series with a creep model, as shown in Figure 3.

In Figure 3, the hysteresis model, which is given by (1) and (2), is used to model the linear and hysteresis forces generated by the PSA with the applied voltage; the creep model, which is given by (3), is used to model the creep characteristics; the mechanical model, which is given by (4) and (5), is used to model the displacement output that resulted from the linear and hysteresis forces generated by the PSA. According to (4) and (5), the mechanical model can be equivalent to the 2-DOF mass-spring-damper system composed of the equivalent mass, stiffness, and damping of the piezoelectric wafers and the bonding layers.

Ignoring the bonding layers yields the simplified comprehensive model, and the mechanical model of the simplified comprehensive model can be expressed aswhere and are the equivalent damping and stiffness of PSAs, respectively, and can be obtained by the identification method proposed in [20]. Equations (1)–(3) and (6) define the simplified comprehensive model for PSAs. The mechanical model of the simplified comprehensive model is equivalent to the single-DOF mass-spring-damper system composed of the equivalent mass, stiffness, and damping of the PSA.

2.1. Electrical Model

The linear function, given by (1), models the linear force and can be expressed aswhere is the ratio between the linear force and the voltage applied to PSAs and is the initial force. In the zero initial condition, .

The hysteresis function of the electric model given by (2) simulates the hysteresis force generated by PSAs under the applied voltage. Considering that the hysteresis of PSAs is asymmetrical [3], utilizing the asymmetrical Bouc-Wen hysteresis operator to simulate the hysteresis force yieldswhere , , , and are the parameters of the asymmetrical Bouc-Wen hysteresis operator; ; is the asymmetrical factor, and when modeling PSAs.

The creep model, which is given by (3), is used to model the creep characteristics and can be expressed aswhere is the time constant of the creep characteristics.

According to the electric model given by (7)–(9), the bonding layers do not affect the hysteresis characteristics of PSAs.

2.2. Mechanical Model

According to (4) and (5), the transfer function of the mechanical model can be expressed as

According to (10), the transfer function has one zero and four poles. The zero can be expressed as

The four poles can be expressed as

According to (12), all of the four poles have negative real parts, which indicate that the mechanical model is stable. According to (10)–(12), the mechanical characteristics of the bonding layers affect the zero and poles . Therefore, if the mechanical characteristics of the bonding layers are changed, the dynamic performance of the PSA will be changed correspondingly.

3. Parameter Identification Method

In order to identify the parameters of the modified comprehensive model for PSAs, the linear component of the modified comprehensive model is separated from the hysteresis component. The parameters for the linear and hysteresis components are separately identified by utilizing the limiting theorem of the Laplace transformation and the least-squares method, respectively.

3.1. Parameter Identification Method of the Linear Component

When the applied voltage is small, the PSA can be approximated to a linear system and [20]. According to (7)–(11), the transfer function of the linear comprehensive model can be rewritten as

According to (13), the steady-state output of the unit step response is given by

According to (13) and (14), the normalized unit transfer function can be expressed aswhere is the normalized transfer function; , , , , , and are the undetermined parameters with values larger than zero. Let be the Laplace inverse transform of .

DefineAccording to the limiting theorem of the Laplace transformation, we haveAccording to (15) and (17), we have And so forth, letWe havewhere , when . A set of equations can be obtained as

According to (21), the parameters , , , , , and can be identified when the normalized unit step response of the PSA is accessed.

3.2. Parameter Identification Method of the Nonlinear Component

When the frequency of the applied voltage to a PSA is less than 1 Hz, PSAs can be considered as the quasi-static condition, and the change of the displacement output of PSAs is slow. So the velocity term and the acceleration term in (4) and (5) are small and can be ignored. At the same time, the impact of the creep characteristics on PSAs is also very small. Therefore, the quasi-static model of PSAs can be expressed as

According to (15), letwhere is the steady-state output of the unit step response of the PSA and can be identified when the unit step response of the PSA is accessed.

The state of the PSA without any applied voltage can be considered as the zero initial condition. According to the inverse piezoelectric effect, the PSA will return to the zero initial condition when the applied voltage disappears for an enough time, which is different for different PSAs. Applying the voltage with frequency of less than 1 Hz to the PSA under the zero initial condition, we have

Let . According to (22) and (24), the following equations can be obtained:

Let . From (25), we have

Assume that and are the solutions of (27) when and in the th () period, respectively. According to (25) and (26), we havewhere and represent the values of and identified with the experimental data in the th period, respectively. According to (28), we can get

When , consider a set of points in , which ensures that the corresponding hysteresis displacements are larger than zero. Equation (26) can be rewritten as

Let . According to (31) and the least-squares method, we have

When , consider a set of points in , which ensures that the corresponding hysteresis displacements are larger than zero. Let . We have

According to (33) and (34), the parameters and can be given by

According to (30), (32), and (35), the parameters , , , , and for the proposed modified comprehensive model can be identified if the displacement output of the PSA with the applied voltage is accessed.

4. Experimental Verification and Analysis

4.1. Experimental Setup

In order to experimentally validate the proposed modified comprehensive model for PSAs and the corresponding parameter identification method, the schematic and photograph of the experimental setup are shown in Figures 4(a) and 4(b), respectively. According to Figure 4, the experimental setup is composed of the power amplifier for piezoelectric actuators (type: P&I-2, peak power: 320 W) [7], laser Doppler vibrometer (LDV, type: OFV-505/5000, Polytec, measurement range: −40~+40 μm, resolution: 2 nm), and real-time simulation system (dSPACE DS1103 with MATLAB/Simulink). When conducting experiments, PSAs, whose displacement outputs are monitored by the LDV, are driven by the power amplifier. The applied voltage to the power amplifier and the output from the LDV are acquired to the host computer by the real-time simulation system.

4.2. Hysteresis and Dynamic Characteristics of Three PSAs Fabricated by Different Layering/Stacking Processes

Three PSAs fabricated by different layering/stacking processes are tested by the established experimental setup. Figures 5(a), 5(b), and 5(c) show the photographs of the PSAs fabricated by gluing piezoelectric wafers and electrodes (type: PTBS200, size: 5 × 5 × 18 mm, applied voltage: 0–200 V, output displacement: 0–18 µm, equivalent capacitance: 1.6 µF, Kunshan GmbH, China), sintering piezoelectric wafers and electrodes layer by layer (type: WYDS0808020, size: 5 × 5 × 18 mm, applied voltage: 0–200 V, output displacement: 0–18 µm, equivalent capacitance: 1.6 µF, China Electronic Technology Group Corporation 26th Research Institute), and directly sintering piezoelectric wafers and electrodes as a whole using the cofired technology (type: P885.51, size: 5 × 5 × 18 mm, applied voltage: 0–120 V, output displacement: 0–18 µm, equivalent capacitance: 1.5 µF, the Physik Instrumente GmbH, Germany), respectively. The rise times of the applied voltages of three PSAs, which jump up from 0 to 100 V, are less than 30 µs, when the peak voltage of the power amplifier is 320 W [7].

The running frequency of PSAs is restricted by the heat dissipation, the production process, and the equivalent capacitive load to some extent. So the step responses of PSAs are used to evaluate their dynamic performance. The measured hysteresis curves and unit step responses of three PSAs, as shown in Figure 5, are shown in Figures 6 and 7, respectively. The unit step responses of PSAs in this paper have been normalized to compare with each other by the normalized formula expressed aswhere is the unit step response; is the steady-state output of the unit step response; is the normalized unit step response.

Observing Figure 6, the hysteresis characteristics of the three PSAs are similar. But observing Figure 7, the step responses of the three PSAs are apparently different. PTBS200 is an underdamping system, but both WYDS0808020 and P885.51 are overdamping systems. PTBS200 maybe possesses the shortest life time due to the overshot of the underdamping system and P885.51 possesses the shortest settling time due to the overdamping systems with appropriate damping. Therefore, the layering/stacking processes do not affect the hysteresis characteristics but affect the dynamic characteristics, which are consistent with the theoretical analysis presented in Section 2.

4.3. Parameter Identification

According to (21), (23), (30), (33), (37), and (38) and a set of data as shown in Figures 6 and 7, the identified parameters of the modified comprehensive model for PTBS200, WYDS0808020, and P885.51 are listed in Table 1.

4.4. Experimental Verification

The hysteresis and dynamic characteristics of the three PSAs can be modeled by the proposed modified comprehensive model given by Table 1.

The hysteresis curves from the three PSAs measured by the LDV and predicted by the modified comprehensive model are shown in Figures 8(a), 8(b), and 8(c), respectively. The corresponding errors between the predicted and measured displacement outputs are shown in Figure 8(d). From Figure 8, the maximum absolute error is 0.41 μm and the maximum relative error is 2.65%, so the modified comprehensive model with the correspondingly identified parameters can portray the hysteresis characteristics well. The normalized unit step responses of the three PSAs measured by the LDV and predicted by the modified comprehensive model are shown in Figure 9(a). The corresponding errors between the predicted and measured normalized unit step responses are shown in Figure 9(b). As it can be observed in Figure 9, the maximum absolute error is 0.0142 and the maximum relative error is 1.42%; therefore, the modified comprehensive model with the correspondingly identified parameters can also accurately model the dynamic characteristics.

Figure 10 shows the measured and modeled responses of P885.51 under a nonperiodic voltage. The corresponding time history of the modeling output displacement error is also shown in Figure 10. It can be observed in Figure 10 that the modified comprehensive model can accurately model the characteristics of the PSAs under applied voltages with various frequencies. In summary, the proposed modified comprehensive model along with the corresponding parameter identification method can accurately portray the hysteresis and dynamic characteristics of PSAs fabricated by different layering/stacking processes.

5. Potential Applications of the Modified Comprehensive Model

5.1. Linearizing the Hysteresis Characteristics

Because the hysteresis force of PSAs cannot be directly measured by sensors, the hysteresis observer is established to estimate the hysteresis force. The hysteresis observer can be expressed as where is the estimated value of .

All coefficients in (37) are constant over time. However, the hysteresis characteristics of PSAs possess time variability, and using the hysteresis observer given by (40) with constant coefficients to observe the hysteresis force of PSAs will result in observation errors. In order to accurately observe the hysteresis force, we can use the recursive least-squares method instead of the least-squares method to identify online the estimated values , , , , and , which can make the hysteresis observer variable. When utilizing the hysteresis observer with the time variability to observe the hysteresis force, the observation error can be decreased theoretically. In this way, (40) can be rewritten as

Utilizing the observed value of the hysteresis force to compensate for PSAs, the transfer function of PSAs can be expressed as

When the observation error is small, (39) can be approximated as

According to (39), the feedforward linearization control can linearize the PSAs to some extent. Moreover, when PSAs work in the quasi-static condition, (43) can be further approximated aswhere is defined by (23). Obviously, the linearization method can simplify the control algorithm and improve the control accuracy of PSAs.

The concrete realization method will be given in subsequent papers.

5.2. Design the Dynamic Characteristics

According to (10)–(12), theoretically speaking, the dynamic performance of PSAs can be designed through configuring the one zero and two poles of the transfer function by controlling the characteristics of the bonding layers in the layering/stacking processes. However, it is difficult to precisely control the characteristics of the bonding layers. According to the proposed modified comprehensive model in this paper, the dynamic performance of PSAs can be simply and effectively designed through letting PSAs be prestressed with elastic deformation mechanisms, and the principle is shown in Figure 11.

According to the proposed modified comprehensive model, the comprehensive model of the prestressed PSAs can be expressed as where , , and are the equivalent mass, damping, and stiffness of the prestressed mechanism, respectively. Let

According to (43) and (44), (42) can be rewritten as

According to (45), the stiffness, damping, and mass of the prestressed mechanism act as the position, velocity, and acceleration feedback, respectively. The block diagram of the comprehensive model for prestressed PSAs is shown in Figure 12. Therefore, the poles of the mechanical parts can be configured by choosing the values of the stiffness, damping, and mass of the prepressed mechanism; accordingly the dynamic performance of PSAs can be designed. It should be pointed out that, according to (45), the prepressed mechanism is unable to influence the creep characteristics of PSAs, but the creep characteristics can affect the dynamic performance of PSAs. Therefore, in order to more rationally design the dynamic performance, the impact of the creep characteristics on the dynamic performance of PSAs must be preconsidered.

6. Conclusions

Consider that a linear force and a hysteresis force will be generated by piezoelectric wafers under the applied voltage to a PSA, and the total force, which has suffered from creep, would result in the forced vibration of the 2-DOF mass-spring-damper system composed of the piezoelectric wafers and the bonding layers. A modified comprehensive model for PSAs was put forward by using a linear function, an asymmetrical Bouc-Wen hysteresis operator, and a creep function to model the linear force, the hysteresis force, and the creep characteristics, respectively. Through separating the linear component of the modified comprehensive model from the hysteresis component, the parameter identification method was established through identifying the parameters for the linear and hysteresis components separately by the limiting theorem of the Laplace transformation and the least-squares method, respectively. The experimental results showed that the modified comprehensive model for PSAs with the corresponding parameter identification method could accurately portray the hysteresis and dynamic characteristics of PSAs fabricated by different layering/stacking processes. Finally, the theoretical analyzing on utilizing the modified comprehensive model to linearize the hysteresis characteristics and design the dynamic characteristics of PSAs was given.
