A lumped-parameter model of a piezoelectric stack actuator has been developed to describe actuator behavior for purposes of control system analysis and design, and in particular for control applications requiring accurate position tracking performance. In addition to describing the input-output dynamic behavior, the proposed model explains aspects of nonintuitive behavioral phenomena evinced by piezoelectric actuators, such as the input-output rate-independent hysteresis and the change in mechanical stiffness that results from altering electrical load. Bond graph terminology is incorporated to facilitate the energy-based formulation of the actuator model. The authors propose a new bond graph element, the generalized Maxwell resistive capacitor, as a lumped-parameter causal representation of rate-independent hysteresis. Model formulation is validated by comparing results of numerical simulations to experimental data.

This paper introduces a lower mobility parallel kinematic crane able to generate Scara motions (three translations and one rotation about a vertical axis). A crane is an underconstrained cable robot: it requires gravity acting on the traveling plate in order to tense the cables. The proposed crane can resist, to a certain extent, against outside forces and torques in all directions of the 6-dimensional task space. This feature results from the use of pairs of cables linking the actuators and the traveling plate. The proposed crane is derived from the I4 parallel robot. Thus, its traveling plate is articulated which provides a wide range of orientation. It is hyperstatic in the sense that one of the eight cables can be removed while keeping the same kinematic relationships. However, for symmetry reasons all the eight cables are kept (this feature is interesting in case of a cable breakdown). The input/output geometrical and kinematic models required for control are derived. Then, the cables tensions are obtained enabling the determination of the static workspace defined as the domain of reachable space where the cables remain taut under the action of gravity.

This paper presents a direct method for determining the geometry factor J for slotted external spur gears. The location of maximum stressed point on the tooth profile where the stress parabola is tangent to the fillet curve has been determined by solving the resulting nonlinear equations using the sophisticated Newton-Raphson method. The semi-graphical procedure given in AGMA Standard [1] is not convenient for determining the geometry factory J of large gears used in grinding mill and kiln drives in the mining industry. Listing of the computer program and input-output point out for a typical application are presented.
