Experimental Study of a Piezoelectric De-Icing System Implemented to Rotorcraft Blades
A four-year project investigating the use of piezoelectric actuators as a vibration-based low power de-icing system has been initiated at the Anti-Icing Materials Laboratory. The work done preceding this investigation consisted of studying, numerically and experimentally, the system integration to a...
