Mechanical amplification is achieved using a multi-flexure-hinge based compliant mechanism, due to limited displacement range of piezoactuator. In the design stage of mechanism, a comparison matrix analysis is performed to decide the best alternative among the possible compliant mechanism candidates. The mechanical design parameters of the displacement amplifier is determined optimally using the analytical equation derived using Pseudo Rigid Body Model, and the static analysis is performed using finite element method to validate the analytical findings. The control system is implemented both to compensate the hysteresis effect and procure precise positioning. In this manner, a model based feedforward model (Bouc-Wen Model) is used as hysteresis compensation and a Proportional Integral (PI) control is used to minimize the error between the desired and actual position. In addition, Zero Phase Error Tracking Control (ZPETC) is added to the system to track the reference input more precisely. The overall mechanism is manufactured using Electro Discharge Machining (EDM) to be used in experiments. The control system is empirically realized and results such as sinusoidal and step responses are evaluated in time domain for each controller separately. All the findings including amplification ratio and controller performance of each control algorithm are validated and evaluated using experimental setup with proper instrumentation.

Single axis precise motion control using piezoactuator associated with a compliant mechanism

Scalar form factor of the nucleon and nucleon-scalar meson coupling constant in QCD
Alıyev, Tahmasıb; Savcı, Mustafa (American Physical Society (APS), 2007-02-01)
Scalar form factor of the nucleon is calculated in the framework of light-cone QCD sum rules, using the most general form of the baryon current. Using the result on scalar form factor of the nucleon, the nucleon-scalar sigma and a(0) meson coupling constants are estimated. Our results on these couplings are in good agreement with the prediction of the external-field QCD sum rules method.
Measurement of the production cross section for pairs of isolated photons in pp collisions at root s=7 TeV
Chatrchyan, S.; et. al. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2012-01-01)
The integrated and differential cross sections for the production of pairs of isolated photons is measured in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 7TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC. A data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36 pb(-1) is analysed. A next-to-leading-order perturbative QCD calculation is compared to the measurements. A discrepancy is observed for regions of the phase space where the two photons have an azimuthal angle difference Delta phi less than or sim...
Design of a Piezoelectric Ultrasonic Motor for Micro-Robotic Application
Akın, Tayfun; Başaran, Dilek; Erden, Abdülkadir (null; 2002-09-05)
In a piezoelectric ultrasonic motor, exciting at least two orthogonal mechanical vibration modes of the composite stator using single or orthogonal multiple high frequency AC signals generates a mechanical vibration on the stator surface. The rotor is pressed against the stator's surface and a rotation is produced by frictional interaction between the touching stator and rotor surfaces. Piezoelectric ultrasonic motors, which have superior characteristics like; high torque at low speed, frictional locking at...
Design, Development and Implementation of Sensorless Digital Control of an Electric Motorization
Dida, Abdelkader Hadj; Bourahla, M.; Ertan, Hulusi Bülent; Benghanem, M. (2014-09-24)
The most industrial applications use the variation of the torque, speed and/or position in process, for which extremely severe specifications are needed. In the field of the drive of the electric machines, the elimination of the mechanical speed sensor can present an economic interest and improve safety of operation. One thus tries to make fulfill the speed measurement by implementing in a Digital signal processor (DSP) an algorithm of speed estimation using the current and voltage acquisition. Those method...
