* Introduction :ignore:
In this document, Finite Element Models (FEM) of parts of the Nano-Hexapod are developed and integrated into Simscape for dynamical analysis.
It is divided in the following sections:
- Section [[sec:APA300ML]]:
A super-element of the Amplified Piezoelectric Actuator APA300ML used for the NASS is exported using Ansys and imported in Simscape.
The static and dynamical properties of the APA300ML are then estimated using the Simscape model.
- Section [[sec:flexor_ID16]]:
A first geometry of a Flexible joint is modelled and its characteristics are identified from the Stiffness matrix as well as from the Simscape model.
- Section [[sec:flexor_025]]:
An optimized flexible joint is developed for the Nano-Hexapod and is then imported in a Simscape model.
- Section [[sec:strut_encoder]]:
A super element of a complete strut is studied.

** Introduction :ignore:
In this section, the Amplified Piezoelectric Actuator APA300ML ([[file:doc/APA300ML.pdf][doc]]) is modeled using a Finite Element Software.
Then a /super element/ is exported and imported in Simscape where its dynamic is studied.
A 3D view of the Amplified Piezoelectric Actuator (APA300ML) is shown in Figure [[fig:apa300ml_ansys]].
The remote point used are also shown in this figure.

** Piezoelectric parameters
In order to make the conversion from applied voltage to generated force or from the strain to the generated voltage, we need to defined some parameters corresponding to the piezoelectric material:
#+begin_src matlab
d33 = 600e-12; % Strain constant [m/V]
n = 80; % Number of layers per stack
eT = 1.6e-8; % Permittivity under constant stress [F/m]
sD = 1e-11; % Compliance under constant electric displacement [m2/N]
ka = 235e6; % Stack stiffness [N/m]
C = 5e-6; % Stack capactiance [F]
#+end_src
PZT-4
#+begin_src matlab
d33 = 300e-12; % Strain constant [m/V]
n = 80; % Number of layers per stack
eT = 5.3e-9; % Permittivity under constant stress [F/m]
sD = 1e-11; % Compliance under constant electric displacement [m2/N]
ka = 235e6; % Stack stiffness [N/m]
C = 5e-6; % Stack capactiance [F]
#+end_src
The ratio of the developed force to applied voltage is:
#+name: eq:piezo_voltage_to_force
\begin{equation}
F_a = g_a V_a, \quad g_a = d_{33} n k_a
\end{equation}
where:
- $F_a$: developed force in [N]
- $n$: number of layers of the actuator stack
- $d_{33}$: strain constant in [m/V]
- $k_a$: actuator stack stiffness in [N/m]
- $V_a$: applied voltage in [V]
If we take the numerical values, we obtain:
#+begin_src matlab :results replace value
d33*n*ka % [N/V]
#+end_src
#+RESULTS:
: 5.64
From [[cite:&fleming14_desig_model_contr_nanop_system]] (page 123), the relation between relative displacement of the sensor stack and generated voltage is:
#+name: eq:piezo_strain_to_voltage
\begin{equation}
V_s = \frac{d_{33}}{\epsilon^T s^D n} \Delta h
\end{equation}
where:
- $V_s$: measured voltage in [V]
- $d_{33}$: strain constant in [m/V]
- $\epsilon^T$: permittivity under constant stress in [F/m]
- $s^D$: elastic compliance under constant electric displacement in [m^2/N]
- $n$: number of layers of the sensor stack
- $\Delta h$: relative displacement in [m]
If we take the numerical values, we obtain:
#+begin_src matlab :results replace value
1e-6*d33/(eT*sD*n) % [V/um]
#+end_src
#+RESULTS:
: 23.438
** Simscape Model
The flexible element is imported using the =Reduced Order Flexible Solid= simscape block.
Let's say we use two stacks as a force sensor and one stack as an actuator:
- A =Relative Motion Sensor= block is added between the nodes A and C
- An =Internal Force= block is added between the remote points E and B
The interface nodes are shown in Figure [[fig:apa300ml_ansys]].
One mass is fixed at one end of the piezo-electric stack actuator (remove point F), the other end is fixed to the world frame (remote point G).
** Identification of the APA Characteristics
*** Stiffness
#+begin_src matlab :exports none
m = 0.0001;
#+end_src
The transfer function from vertical external force to the relative vertical displacement is identified.

The inverse of its DC gain is the axial stiffness of the APA:
#+begin_src matlab :results replace value
1e-6/dcgain(G) % [N/um]
#+end_src
#+RESULTS:
: 1.753
The specified stiffness in the datasheet is $k = 1.8\, [N/\mu m]$.
*** Resonance Frequency
The resonance frequency is specified to be between 650Hz and 840Hz.
This is also the case for the FEM model (Figure [[fig:apa300ml_resonance]]).
#+begin_src matlab :exports none

#+RESULTS:

*** Amplification factor
The amplification factor is the ratio of the vertical displacement to the stack displacement.
#+begin_src matlab :exports none
%% Name of the Simulink File

%% Input/Output definition
clear io; io_i = 1;

io(io_i) = linio([mdl, '/d'], 1, 'openoutput'); io_i = io_i + 1;
G = linearize(mdl, io);
#+end_src
The ratio of the two displacement is computed from the FEM model.
#+begin_src matlab :results replace value
abs(dcgain(G(1,1))./dcgain(G(2,1)))
#+end_src
#+RESULTS:

This is actually correct and approximately corresponds to the ratio of the piezo height and length:
#+begin_src matlab :results replace value
75/15
#+end_src
#+RESULTS:
: 5
*** Stroke
Estimation of the actuator stroke:
\[ \Delta H = A n \Delta L \]
with:
- $\Delta H$ Axial Stroke of the APA
- $A$ Amplification factor (5 for the APA300ML)
- $n$ Number of stack used
- $\Delta L$ Stroke of the stack (0.1% of its length)
#+begin_src matlab :results replace value

** Identification for a simpler model
The goal in this section is to identify the parameters of a simple APA model from the FEM.
This can be useful is a lower order model is to be used for simulations.
The presented model is based on cite:souleille18_concep_activ_mount_space_applic.
The model represents the Amplified Piezo Actuator (APA) from Cedrat-Technologies (Figure [[fig:souleille18_model_piezo]]).
The parameters are shown in the table below.
#+name: fig:souleille18_model_piezo

#+attr_latex: :environment tabularx :width 0.8\linewidth :align cl
#+attr_latex: :center t :booktabs t
| | Meaning |
|-------+----------------------------------------------------------------|
| $k_e$ | Stiffness used to adjust the pole of the isolator |
| $k_1$ | Stiffness of the metallic suspension when the stack is removed |
| $k_a$ | Stiffness of the actuator |
| $c_1$ | Added viscous damping |
The goal is to determine $k_e$, $k_a$ and $k_1$ so that the simplified model fits the FEM model.
\[ \alpha = \frac{x_1}{f}(\omega=0) = \frac{\frac{k_e}{k_e + k_a}}{k_1 + \frac{k_e k_a}{k_e + k_a}} \]
\[ \beta = \frac{x_1}{F}(\omega=0) = \frac{1}{k_1 + \frac{k_e k_a}{k_e + k_a}} \]
If we can fix $k_a$, we can determine $k_e$ and $k_1$ with:
\[ k_e = \frac{k_a}{\frac{\beta}{\alpha} - 1} \]
\[ k_1 = \frac{1}{\beta} - \frac{k_e k_a}{k_e + k_a} \]
