A PZT Array Actuator Using Buckling Strain Amplification and Preload Mechanisms
Displacement amplification mechanisms have been a topic of research for piezoelectric actuators for decades to overcome their significantly small strain, but still utilize their high power density, force, and efficiency This paper further analyzes a nonlinear buckling mechanism to improve its effici...
