Piezoelectric d15 shear response-based torsion actuation mechanism: an experimental benchmark and its 3D finite element simulation

P Berik, A Benjeddou - International Journal of Smart and Nano …, 2010 - Taylor & Francis
An experimental benchmark is proposed for piezoelectric, direct-torsion actuation using
mono-morph piezoceramic d15 shear patches. This is reached by designing and …
