“…Finite element predictions of beam deflection were in good agreement with experimental data, however no quantitative comparison of prediction error was presented. Recently, Binette et al[17] conducted experimental characterisation of laminate deflection for a composite panel subjected to thermal loading. Piezoelectric actuation via two MFC actuators was used to reverse the induced thermal deformation.…”

This paper develops and validates a finite-element model to predict both the cured shape and snap-through of asymmetric bistable laminates actuated by piezoelectric macro fiber composites attached to the laminate. To fully describe piezoelectric actuation, the three-dimensional compliance [s(ij)], piezoelectric [d(ij)], and relative permittivity [ε(ij)] matrices were formulated for the macro fiber actuator. The deflection of an actuated isotropic aluminum beam was then modeled and compared with experimental measurements to validate the data. The model was then extended to bistable laminates actuated using macro fiber composites. Model results were compared with experimental measurements of laminate profile (shape) and snap-through voltage. The modeling approach is an important intermediate step toward enabling design of shape-changing structures based on bistable laminates.

“…In order to get the structural response of piezo composite laminated plates and shells, the earlier studies of simulation techniques are mainly using commercial software, for example, ANSYS (Bowen et al, 2011; Dano et al, 2008), ABAQUS (Binette et al, 2009; Ren, 2008), with the results compared to those from experiments. Furthermore, the investigations of cured shape and snap-through of asymmetric bistable laminates actuated by MFC has been carried out by Bowen et al (2011) and Giddings et al (2011).…”

Piezoelectric materials embedded into plates and shells make the structures being capable of sensing and actuation, usually called smart structures, which are frequently used for shape and vibration control, noise control, health monitoring, and energy harvesting. To give a precise prediction of static and dynamic behavior of smart structures, the linear/nonlinear multi-physics coupled modeling technique is of great importance. The article attempts to present the available research on modeling of piezoelectric integrated plates and shells, including (1) through thickness hypotheses for beams, plates, and shells; (2) geometrically nonlinear theories for plates and shells; (3) electroelastic material linear/nonlinear modeling; (4) multi-physics coupled modeling; and (5) modeling of advanced piezo-fiber composite bonded structures.

“…Barkanov et al investigated the active twist control of a helicopter rotor blade using an MFC actuator to reduce vibration and noise, without any complex mechanism in the rotating systems [17]. Binette et al studied the shape control of composite structures using MFC actuators [18]. They used MFC actuators to compensate for thermally-induced distortion of a sandwich plate subjected to a through-the-thickness thermal gradient.…”

In this work, active vibration control of an underwater cylindrical shell structure was investigated, to suppress structural vibration and structure-borne noise in water. Finite element modeling of the submerged cylindrical shell structure was developed, and experimentally evaluated. Modal reduction was conducted to obtain the reduced system equation for the active feedback control algorithm. Three Macro Fiber Composites (MFCs) were used as actuators and sensors. One MFC was used as an exciter. The optimum control algorithm was designed based on the reduced system equations. The active control performance was then evaluated using the lab scale underwater cylindrical shell structure. Structural vibration and structure-borne noise of the underwater cylindrical shell structure were reduced significantly by activating the optimal controller associated with the MFC actuators. The results provide that active vibration control of the underwater structure is a useful means to reduce structure-borne noise in water.
