Inversion-based control of electromechanical systems using causal graphical descriptions
Causal Ordering Graph and Energetic Macroscopic Representation are graphical descriptions to model electromechanical systems using integral causality. Inversion rules have been defined in order to deduce control structure step-bystep from these graphical descriptions. These two modeling tools can be used together to develop a two-layer control of system with complex parts. A double-drive paper system is taken as an example. The deduced control yields good performances of tension regulation and velocity tracking

Model and design of a double frequency piezoelectric resonator
A novel design of a multifrequency mechanical resonator with piezoelectric materials for energy harvesting is presented. The electromechanical response is described by a finite element model, which predicts the output voltage and the generated powe
Local probing of ionic diffusion by electrochemical strain microscopy: spatial resolution and signal formation mechanisms
Electrochemical insertion-deintercalation reactions are typically associated
with significant change of molar volume of the host compound. This strong
coupling between ionic currents and strains underpins image formation
mechanisms in electrochemical strain microscopy (ESM), and allows exploring the
tip-induced electrochemical processes locally. Here we analyze the signal
formation mechanism in ESM, and develop the analytical description of operation
in frequency and time domains. The ESM spectroscopic modes are compared to
classical electrochemical methods including potentiostatic and galvanostatic
intermittent titration (PITT and GITT), and electrochemical impedance
spectroscopy (EIS). This analysis illustrates the feasibility of spatially
resolved studies of Li-ion dynamics on the sub-10 nanometer level using
electromechanical detection.Comment: 49 pages, 17 figures, 4 tables, 3 appendices, to be submitted to J.
