Quasi-Rayleigh model for modeling hysteresis of piezoelectric actuators

Dragan Damjanovic, Meng Zhang

Piezoelectric actuators (PEAs) have been widely used in nano-positioning applications for their high resolution of displacement. However, hysteresis, which is an inherent property of ferroelectric PEAs has been shown to significantly degrade the system per ...
