AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
In order to improve the vibration suppression effect of the flexible beam system, active control based on soft piezoelectric macro-fiber composites (MFCs) consisting of polyimide (PI) sheet and lead zirconate titanate (PZT) is used to reduce the vibration. The vibration control system is composed of a flexible beam, a sensing piezoelectric MFC plate, and an actuated piezoelectric MFC plate. The dynamic coupling model of the flexible beam system is established according to the theory of structural mechanics and the piezoelectric stress equation. A linear quadratic optimal controller (LQR) is designed based on the optimal control theory. An optimization method, designed based on a differential evolution algorithm, is utilized for the selection of weighted matrix Q. Additionally, according to theoretical research, an experimental platform is built, and vibration active control experiments are carried out on piezoelectric flexible beams under conditions of instantaneous disturbance and continuous disturbance. The results show that the vibration of flexible beams is effectively suppressed under different disturbances. The amplitudes of the piezoelectric flexible beams are reduced by 94.4% and 65.4% under the conditions of instantaneous and continuous disturbances with LQR control.

Piezoelectric materials are increasingly used in portable smart electronics and Internet of Things sensors. Among them, piezoelectric macro fiber composites (MFCs) have attracted much attention due to their architectural simplicity, scalability, and high-power density. However, most MFCs currently use toxic lead-based piezoelectric materials, hindering their applications for bio-friendly intelligent electronics.

Applications of guided waves in various fields of engineering and science rely on elastic wave emitters for wave generation. Accurate prediction and understanding of the far-field responses of these wave emitters are crucial for the reliable and efficient application of guided waves-based technologies. In this paper, we propose a novel semi-analytical framework capable of predicting the far-field response of complex wave emitters of arbitrary shape and internal structure in any type of substrate.

In recent years, there has been a growing interest in piezoelectric energy harvesting systems, particularly for their potential to recharge or replace batteries in energy-efficient electronic devices and wireless sensor networks. Nonetheless, the conventional linear piezoelectric energy harvesters (PEH) face limitations in ultra-low frequency vibrations (1-10 Hz) due to their narrow operating bandwidth and higher resonance frequencies. To address this, researchers explored compact shaped geometries, with spiral PEH being one such design to lower resonance frequencies by reducing structural stiffness.

In nature, lakes and water channels offer abundant underwater energy sources. However, effectively harnessing these green and sustainable underwater energy sources is challenging due to their low flow velocities. Here, we propose an underwater energy-harvesting system based on a cylindrical bluff body and a cantilever beam composed of a macro fiber composite (MFC), taking advantage of the MFC's low-frequency, lightweight, and high piezoelectric properties to achieve energy harvesting in low-frequency and low-speed water flows.
