   A Power Drive Control For Piezoelectric Actuators
By Gunnar Gnad, Roland Kasper [View]
[Download]

Abstract: This article presents a new switching amplifier circuit for piezoelectric multilayer actuators, which allows a fast and precise driving as well as the recovery of energy from the actuator. The design of a digital controller, which was considerably facilitated by a mixed analog digital simulation, is presented. A model of the piezoelectric actuator is part of this simulation. Results from simulations and measurements are presented in this paper.

   Learning Model Of A Mechatronic System
By V. Gelezevicius, A. De Laat, T. Rakauskas [View]
[Download]

Abstract: The concept of representation of an industrial mechatronic system as multiple-layer and multiple-level automation system, integrating energy flow regulation, conversion and transmission functions is given in this paper. The structural model of competencies in mechatronics improvement enabling study programs of academic institutions and training programs of learning centers coordination is proposed.

   Mechatronics System Design Process And Methodologies
By Raivo Sell, Mart Tamre [View]
[Download]

Abstract: Design process in an interdisciplinary domain like mechatronics is a complex process and sets high demands for designer. It is wide known that decisions in conceptual stage of design process affect final product significantly. Therefore great attention for this phase of design must be paid. The paper gives an overview of the product development process focusing on the conceptual stage and the methodologies and techniques used. An object-oriented approach based on the combination of different techniques is proposed. Quicker conceptual design solutions, optimized design candidates, and well formalized customer needs are the main benefits of the new approach for the conceptual design process.
