Active shape control of a double-plate structures using piezoceramics and SMA wires

Abstract: A method for the shape control of double-plate structures is presented. The model consists of three plates and many ribs. Two of the plates are placed parallel to each other and clamped at one edge. The third plate connects the edges of the parallel plates that are opposite the fixed edge. Each rib is made of shape memory alloy (SMA) wire and connected to the parallel plates. Each rib generates a concentrated force and applies it to the plates in perpendicular and oblique directions. Piezoceramic patches are b… Show more

“…Matrix materials that have been used include polymers [1; 2], metals [3][4][5], plaster [6], and composites such as fiberglass-epoxy [7; 8] and carbon-epoxy [9]. Some applications use the SMA behavior to control the shape of the composite structure [10][11][12], or its vibrational [7; 13; 14] or buckling response [15; 16] while other applications use the SMA components to change the composite's stiffness [7; 17], to strengthen the composite [4], and to close or repair cracks [8; 18-20] Several methods have been developed to study the thermomechanical response for SMA composites, including micromechanical methods [18; 21] and finite element analysis [15; 22; 23]. In some cases, special composite elements have been created to study multi-layered composite plates [24][25][26] and layered beams [27].…”

“…Shape memory alloy can be used in shape control due to its high recovery forces and large displacement (Choi and Lee 1998;Oh et al 2001;Yang et al 2006). In the experimental and analytical studies carried out by Choi and Lee, it was shown that the SMA actuators were able to modify the deformed shape of composite (Oh et al 2001).…”

“…For active applications, it has been shown that SMA wires can act as internal stress generators in polymer composite systems (Bollas et al, 2007), which induce the SMA activation. Some SMA composites models are developed for structure morphing (Brinson et al, 1997;Oh et al, 2001;Armstrong and Lorentzen, 2001;Chemisky et al, 2009a), or for vibration control (Brinson and Lammering, 1993;Aoki and Shimamoto, 2003;Zhang et al, 2007). Other ones simulate the passive behavior to control some properties of the composite, as stiffness (Boyd and Lagoudas, 1996), hysteresis properties after cycling (Kawai, 2000) or the overall behavior (Cherkaoui et al, 2000).…”
