Major Applications • Piezoelectric bending actuators are widely used in smart structure applications due to their high bandwidth, high output force, compact size, and high power density properties. For such reasons they are very appealing for mobile microrobotic applications such as the Micromechanical Flying Insect (MFI) where, because of strict size/weight constraints, smart structures capable of both actuating and sensing are preferred.

Conclusions of a Study • At high electric fields piezoelectric actuators exhibit strong nonlinear characteristics. Using the asymptotic theory of nonstationary vibrations, the dynamic characteristics of the piezoelectric bending actuators have been modeled. From the present nonlinear model, the change in the fundamental resonant frequency of the piezoelectric cantilever with the variation in the electric field can be well predicted. The predicted resonance amplitude of the tip deflection of the piezoelectric actuators, which increases with the increase in the magnitude of the electric field, well agrees with experimental results. Additionally, the decrease in the mechanical quality factor with the increase in the electric field, the tip deflection of the piezoelectric actuators near resonance frequency, the amplitude of the tip deflection at the fundamental vibration tone under the applied electric field varying with time have also been obtained using the present model.

Limitations • In reality piezoelectric materials are afected by several kind of losses, among these the dielectric ones. Considering the piezoelectric layer as a capacitor, if a static charge is initially placed across its electrodes, the capacitor will eventually discharge because of ohmic losses of the dielectric material constituting the capacitor itself.
