Experimental investigation and theoretical modeling of piezoelectric actuators used in fuel injectors

Piezoelectric stack actuators are increasingly used in micropositioning applications due to their precision and responsiveness. Advanced automotive fuel injectors have recently been developed that utilize multilayer piezoelectric actuators. Since these injectors must operate under high dynamical exc...
