Multilayer Electromagnetoelastic Actuator for Nanomechanics
In this paper, we consider the generalized structural diagram of the multilayer electro magneto elastic actuator or the multilayer piezo actuator for the nanomechanics in contrast to Cady and Mason’s electrical equivalent circuits for the calculation of the piezo transmitter and receiver, the vibration piezo motor. From the solution of the general equation of the electro magneto elasticity, the matrix equation for the equivalent quadripole of the multilayer electro magneto elastic actuator, and its boundary conditions we receive the generalized structuralparametric model, the structural diagram and matrix transfer function of the multilayer actuator.
Electromagnetoelastic Actuator for Nanomechanics
From the structural-parametric model of the electromagnetoelastic actuator we obtain the parametric structural schematic diagram and the matrix transfer function, the characteristics of the electromagnetoelastic actuator for the nanomechanics. The generalized parametric structural schematic diagram, the matrix transfer function of the electromagnetoelastic actuator is described with using its physical parameters and external load.
