Modeling of a Dielectric Elastomer Bender Actuator
The current smallest self-contained modular robot uses a shape memory alloy, which is inherently inefficient, slow and difficult to control. We present the design, fabrication and demonstration of a module based on dielectric elastomer actuation. The module uses a pair of bowtie dielectric elastomer actuators in an agonist-antagonist configuration and is seven times smaller than previously demo...
متن کاملFault Detection and Diagnosis for A Multi-Actuator Pneumatic System
of the Dissertation Fault Detection and Diagnosis for A Multi-Actuator Pneumatic System by Kunbo Zhang Doctor of Philosophy in Mechanical Engineering Stony Brook University 2011 In pneumatic actuating systems, various kinds of faults are key factors in degrading system performance and increasing air consumption. It is therefore valuable to monitor pneumatic systems and implement predictive main...
متن کاملThe dynamic micropump driven with a screen printed PZT actuator
A hybrid actuated silicon-based micropump with dynamic passive valves is described in this paper. The actuator is based on a combination of thick-film and silicon micromachining technology and relies on the flexure of a membrane structure of lead zirconate titanate on silicon. Inlet and outlet valves use the passive dynamic principle, where flow direction is realized with a diffuser and a nozzl...
متن کاملSoft, Rotating Pneumatic Actuator.
This article describes a soft pneumatic actuator that generates cyclical motion. The actuator consists of several (three, four, or five) chambers (arranged around the circumference of a circle surrounding a central rod) that can be actuated independently using negative pressure (or partial vacuum). Sequential actuation of the four-chamber device using reduced pressure moves the central rod cycl...
متن کاملFault diagnosis of an electro-pneumatic valve actuator using neural networks with fuzzy capabilities
The early detection of faults (just beginning and still developing) can help avoid system shutdown, breakdown and even catastrophes involving human fatalities and material damage. Computational intelligence techniques are being investigated as an extension to the traditional fault diagnosis methods. This paper discusses the neuro-fuzzy approach to modelling and fault diagnosis, based on the TSK...
