The piezoelectric actuators are widely used to realize high precise motion with fractional force and torque in both linear and rotary joints of the micro-systems. The control system plays a major role on overall dynamics including positioning and tracking objectives in piezoelectric actuator based micro-systems. The piezoelectric actuator inherently has its own non-linear behaviour such as hysteresis, creep, thermal drift and vibration which deteriorates overall performances including stability of the developed systems. This article reviews the various efforts for solving the major issues such as hysteresis and creep. It has been inferred that generalized control solution is not appropriate for all kind of piezoelectric actuators. Hence it has been observed that appropriate control strategies has to be implemented for reducing tracking error, position error and non-linear characteristic of piezoelectric actuator namely hysteresis and creep.

Jayaseelan Veerasundaram, Kalaichelvan Kani, Ramasamy Nallumuthu, Muthuramalingam Thangaraj

Summary: Lubricants are essential in metal forming to prevent direct contact, adhesion, transfer, and scratches, and also to increase tool durability and reduce energy consumption. This study investigates the effects of lubricants and billet geometry on the extrusion of AA6063/5% SiCp. Graphite, zinc stearate, and molybdenum disulphide were used as lubricants, and the friction factor was determined based on the lubricant effect and billet geometry. Simulation was performed under lubricated conditions and compared with experimental results. The use of graphite-lubricated 12:8 configuration die profile resulted in improved billet quality, with a 10.5% lower friction factor compared to other configurations. Scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray analyses were used to examine the surface of the lubricated extruded component.

Min Ji, T. Muthuramalingam, D. Saravanakumar, Panagiotis Karmiris-Obratanski Karmiris-Obratanski, Nikolaos E. Karkalos, Weiming Zhang

Summary: In vibration assisted electrical discharge machining (VEDM), the depth of cut (DoC) has a significant impact on the quality of the machined specimens. This study utilized an Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) to predict the DoC in VEDM of a titanium alloy workpiece. Three machining process factors, including peak current, pulse-on time, and vibrational frequency, were employed to train the ANFIS model, with pulse-on time being the most influential factor. The ANFIS model outperformed linear and nonlinear regression models, as well as the regression tree model, achieving a 97.3% accuracy in predicting the DoC.

Lei Li, Wei Yang, Dongfa Li, Jianxin Han, Wenming Zhang

Summary: The frequency locking phenomenon induced by modal coupling can effectively overcome the dependence of peak frequency on driving strength in nonlinear resonant systems and improve the stability of peak frequency.

Experimental and theoretical investigations confirm the occurrence of first frequency locking and the subsequent switching to second frequency locking with the increase of driving force. Furthermore, a mass sensing scheme for double analytes is proposed based on the double frequencies locking phenomenon.
