Dynamic Optimization Method on Electromechanical Coupling System by Exponential Inertia Weight Particle Swarm Algorithm

Dynamic optimization of electromechanical coupling system is a significant engineering problem in the field of mechatronics. The performance improvement of electromechanical equipment depends on the system design parameters. Aiming at the spindle unit of refitted machine tool for solid rocket, the vibration acceleration of tool is taken as objective function, and the electromechanical system design parameters are appointed as design variables. Dynamic optimization model is set up by adopting Lagrange-Maxwell equations, Park transform and electromechanical system energy equations. In the procedure of seeking high efficient optimization method, exponential function is adopted to be the weight function of particle swarm optimization algorithm. Exponential inertia weight particle swarm algorithm（EPSA）, is formed and applied to solve the dynamic optimization problem of electromechanical system. The probability density function of EPSA is presented and used to perform convergence analysis.

Stability and Hopf bifurcation of a nonlinear electromechanical coupling system with time delay feedback

The stability and the Hopf bifurcation of a nonlinear electromechanical coupling system with time delay feedback are studied. By considering the energy in the air-gap field of the AC motor, the dynamical equation of the electromechanical coupling transmission system is deduced and a time delay feedback is introduced to control the dynamic behaviors of the system. The characteristic roots and the stable regions of time delay are determined by the direct method, and the relationship between the feedback gain and the length summation of stable regions is analyzed. Choosing the time delay as a bifurcation parameter, we find that the Hopf bifurcation occurs when the time delay passes through a critical value.A formula for determining the direction of the Hopf bifurcation and the stability of the bifurcating periodic solutions is given by using the normal form method and the center manifold theorem. Numerical simulations are also performed, which confirm the analytical results.

CHARACTERISTICS OF ELECTROMECHANICAL COUPLING SELF-SYNCHRONIZATION OF A MULTI-MOTOR VIBRATION TRANSMISSION SYSTEM

Multi-motor vibratory transmission systems have been wide used in large vibratory machines, and four-motor linear vibratory machine is one typical equipment of them. Under non-forcible synchronization condition zero-phase synchronization of the machine is non-stationary and it-phase synchronization is stable. Under half-forcible synchronization condition in which only one motor is controlled being synchronous to another, only lag synchronization near zero-phase synchronization can be realized. Both of the characteristics have never been revealed with classical theory quantitatively. The problem is solved by means of establishing an electromechanical coupling mathematical model of the system and numerical analysis of the starting processes.

The mechanism and conditions of system parameters for chaotic motions are investigated rigorously based on the Silnikov method, and the homoclinic orbit is found by using the undetermined coefficient method. Therefore, Smale horseshoe chaos occurs when electromagnetic stiffness changes. Numerical simulations are also given, which confirm the analytical results.

Surface Electromechanical Coupling on DLC Film with Conductive Atomic Force Microscope

Diamond-like carbon (DLC) film composed of microscopically insulation but microscopically a mixture of conducting (sp2) and insulating (sp3) phases was discussed on the local modification with a conductive atomic force microscope (C-APM). Especially, a topographic change was observed when a direct current (DC) bias-voltage was applied to the DLC film. Experimental results show that a nanoscale pit on DLC surface was formed when applying a positive 25 V on DLC film. According to the interacting force between CoCr-coated microelectronic scanning probe (MESP) tip and DLC surface, as well as the Sondheimer oscillation theory, the 'scalewing effect' of the pit was explained. Electromechanical coupling on DLC film suggested that the depth of pits increased with an increase of load applied to surface when the cantilever-deflected signal was less than a certain threshold voltage.

Nonlinear modal electromechanical coupling factor for piezoelectric structures containing nonlinearities

Within the linear framework,the Modal Electromechanical Coupling Factor(MEMCF)is an important indicator to quantify the dynamic conversion of mechanical energy and electrical energy of piezoelectric structures.It is also an important tool to guide the piezoelectric damping design of linear structures.Advanced aircraft often fly in maneuvers,and the variable working conditions induce drastic changes in the load level on structures.Geometric and contact nonlinearities of thin-walled structures and joint structures are often activated.To achieve a good vibration reduction effect covering all working conditions,one cannot directly use linear electromechanical coupling theory to instruct the piezoelectric damping design for nonlinear structures.Therefore,this paper defines the Nonlinear Modal Electromechanical Coupling Factor(NMEMCF)and proposes the corresponding numerical method for the first time to quantitatively evaluate the electromechanical coupling capability of nonlinear piezoelectric structures.Three candidate definitions of the NMEMCF are given,including two frequency definitions and one energy definition.The energy definition is the most promising one.It is not only applicable to both conservative and dissipative nonlinear structures but also compatible with the linear MEMCF.In addition,based on the energy formula,the NMEMCF can be obtained by only performing one nonlinear modal analysis in the open-circuit state.The analytical findings and the numerical tool are validated against two piezoelectric structures with different types of nonlinearities.A strong correlation among the NMEMCF,geometric parameters,and energy dissipation is observed.The results confirm that the proposed NMEMCF captures the physics of the electromechanical coupling phenomenon associated with nonlinear piezoelectric structures and can be used as an essential design indicator of piezoelectric damping,especially for variable working conditions.

Electromechanical coupling properties of a self-powered vibration sensing device for near-surface observation tower monitoring

The wind-induced vibration of a remote sensing tower is the key factor affecting the stability of image sensing and structural reliability. Monitoring the vibration of a long-time unattended tower is critical to its proper operation. Currently, most monitoring devices are supplied with wired power or battery, significantly limiting their practical applications in remote areas. In this paper,a self-powered vibration sensing device based on hybrid electromechanical conversion mechanisms is proposed. The device depends on a cylindrical magnetic levitation structure sensitive to ambient vibration for transferring mechanical energy and is taken as a dual-functional heterogeneous integrated system comprising electromagnetic, piezoelectric, and triboelectric generators. When the device vibrates under environmental force driving, the suspension magnet reciprocates vertically and generates induced electromagnetic energy, which is used to power the device. Moreover, the triboelectric and piezoelectric voltages,respectively originating from magnet impact on two separation friction materials and magnetic field repulsion-induced strain deformation of a piezoelectric sheet, are used as the synergistic sensing signals. To improve the output energy, a set of dualsegmented annular coils is designed in an electromagnetic generator, which greatly avoids the obstructive effect of the suspended magnet on the magnetic flux change at its end. Compared with a whole isochoric coil, it increases the output voltage by 78.3%.For the triboelectric sensing module, a silicone film with a large specific surface area is fabricated via 3D modification, which improves the output voltage by 29.4%. Furthermore, a pair of piezoelectric sensing modules is set to improve the accuracy of comparative sensing data. The experimental measurement shows that the device maintains a high sensitivity of 6.711 V(m s;);and excellent linearity of 0.991 in the range of 0–14 m s;. This work provides a practical strategy for the vibration monitoring of remote sensing towers and exhibits attractive potential in early warning and data analysis.

Early Changes in Atrial Electromechanical Coupling in Patients with Hypertension： Assessment by Tissue Doppler Imaging

Background： Hypertension （HT） is associated with atrial electrophysiological abnormalities. Echocardiographic pulsed wave tissue Doppler imaging （TDI） is one of the noninvasive methods for evaluation of atrial electromechanical properties. The aims of our study were to investigate the early changes in atrial electromechanical conduction in patients with HT and to assess the parameters that affect atrial electromechanical conduction. Methods： Seventy-six patients with HT （41 males, mean age 52.6 i 9.0 years） and 41 controls （22 males, mean age 49.8 ± 7.9 years） were included in the study. Atrial electromechanical coupling at the right （PRA）, left （PLA）, interatrial septum （PIS） were measured with TDI. Intra- （right： PIS-PRA, left： PLA-PIS） and inter-atrial （PLA-PRA） electromechanical delays were calculated. Maximum P-wave duration （Pmax） was calculated from 12-lead electrocardiogram. Results： Atrial electromechanical coupling at PLA （76.6 ± 14.1 ms vs. 82.9 ±15.8 ms, P - 0.036）, left intra-atrial （10.9 ±5.0 ms vs. 14.0 ± 9.7 ms, P = 0.023）, right intra-atrial （10.6 ± 7.8 ms vs. 14.5 ± 10.1 ms, P= 0.035）, and interatrial electromechanical （21.4± 9.8 ms vs. 28.3 ± 12.7 ms, P = 0.003） delays were significantly longer in patients with HT. The linear regression analysis showed that left ventricular （LV） mass index and Pmax were significantly associated with PLA （P = 0.001 and P = 0.002, respectively）, and the LV mass index was the only related factor for interatrial delay （1~ = 0.001）. Conclusions： Intra- and interatrial electromechanical delay, PLA were significantly prolonged in hypertensive patients. LV mass index and Pmax were significantly associated with PLA, and the LV mass index was the only related factor for interatrial delay. The atrial TDI can be a valuable method to assess the early changes of atrial electromechanical conduction properties in those patients.

Effective electromechanical coupling coefficient of high-overtone bulk acoustic resonator

A high-overtone bulk acoustic resonator （HBAR） is composed of a substrate, a piezoelectric film and upper and lower electrodes, the influences of their structure parameter （thickness） and performance parameter （characteristic impedance） on effective electromechani- cal coupling coefficient K^2eff are investigated systematically. The relationship between K^2eff and these parameters is obtained by a lumped parameter equivalent circuit instead of distributed parameter equivalent circuit near the resonant frequency, and K^2eff at the resonance frequency closest to the given frequency is analyzed. The results show that K^2eff declines rapidly and oscillatorily with the continuous increase of the substrate thickness when the piezoelectric film thickness is fixed, and decreases inversely proportion to the thickness when the substrate thick-ness is greater than a certain value. With the ratio of the characteristic impedance of the substrate to the piezoelectric layer increasing, the maximum of K^2eff obtained from the vari- ation curve of K^2eff with the continuous increase of the piezoelectric film thickness decreases rapidly before reaching the minimum value, and later increases slowly. Fused silica with low impedance is appropriate as the substrate of HBAR to get a larger K^2eff. Compared with Al electrode, Au electrode can obtain larger K^2eff when the appropriate electrode thickness is selected. The revealed laws above mentioned provide the theoretical basis for optimizing parameters of HBAR.

A 3D multi-field element for simulating the electromechanical coupling behavior of dielectric elastomers

We propose a multi-field implicit finite element method for analyzing the electromechanical behavior of dielectric elastomers. This method is based on a four-field variational principle, which includes displacement and electric potential for the electromechanical coupling analysis, and additional independent fields to address the incompressible constraint of the hyperelastic material. Linearization of the variational form and finite element discretization are adopted for the numerical implementation. A general FEM program framework is devel- oped using C＋＋ based on the open-source finite element library deal.II to implement this proposed algorithm. Numerical examples demonstrate the accuracy, convergence properties, mesh-independence properties, and scalability of this method. We also use the method for eigenvalue analysis of a dielectric elastomer actuator subject to electromechanical loadings. Our finite element implementation is available as an online supplementary material.

Ferroelectric single crystals,such as PZN-PT,provide novel prospects in piezoelectric bending devices such as actuators,sensors or energy harvesters because of their extraordinarily large piezoelectric coefficients.However,large errors may occur in some analyses on electromechanical behaviors using the conventional models.We find the bending rigidity of piezoelectric composited bender is affected not only by thickness,width and the modulus of elasticity of the different layers but also electromechanical coupling coefficients(EMCCs)of the piezoelectric material and the larger EMCCs mean more marked effect.This paper focuses on the derivation of the applied input excitation and output response characteristics in the circular frequency domain for piezoelectric cantilever triple-layer benders(PCTBs),taking into account the secondary piezoelectric effect.Analytic dynamic descriptions of such actuators and transducers are obtained.Based on the presented models dynamic features of PCTB composed of PZN-8%PT are calculated,and numerical results coincide with simulations using the finite element method(FEM).

Analysis of the electromechanical behavior of ferroelectric ceramics based on a nonlinear finite element model

A nonlinear finite element （FE） model based on domain switching was proposed to study the electromechanical behavior of ferroelectric ceramics. The incremental FE formulation was improved to avoid any calculation instability. The problems of mesh sensitivity and convergence, and the efficiency of the proposed nonlinear FE technique have been assessed to illustrate the versatility and potential accuracy of the said technique. The nonlinear electromechanical behavior, such as the hysteresis loops and butterfly curves, of ferroelectric ceramics subjected to both a uniform electric field and a point electric potential has been studied numerically. The results obtained are in good agreement with those of the corresponding theoretical and experimental analyses. Furthermore, the electromechanical coupling fields near （a） the boundary of a circular hole, （b） the boundary of an elliptic hole and （c） the tip of a crack, have been analyzed using the proposed nonlinear finite element method （FEM）. The proposed nonlinear electromechanically coupled FEM is useful for the analysis of domain switching, deformation and fracture of ferroelectric ceramics.
