A Combined Piezoelectric Composite Actuator and Its Application to Wing/Blade Tips

A Combined Piezoelectric Composite Actuator and Its Application to Wing/Blade Tips

A novel combined piezoelectric-composite actuator configuration is proposed and analytically modeled in this work. The actuator is a low complexity, active compliant mechanism obtained by coupling a modified star cross sectional configuration composite beam with a helicoidal bimorph piezoelectric ac...
