Mathematical modeling of a V-stack piezoelectric aileron actuation
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 4
Abstract
The article presents a mathematical modeling of aileron actuation that uses piezo V-shaped stacks. The aim of the actuation is the increasing of flutter speed in the context of a control law, in order to widen the flight envelope. In this way the main advantage of such a piezo actuator, the bandwidth is exploited. The mathematical model is obtained based on free body diagrams, and the numerical simulations allow a preliminary sizing of the actuator.
