The first goal is to characterize the APA300ML in terms of:
- The, geometric features, electrical capacitance, stroke, hysteresis, spurious resonances.
  This is performed in Section ref:sec:test_apa_basic_meas.
- The dynamics from the generated DAC voltage (going to the voltage amplifiers and then applied on the actuator stacks) to the induced displacement, and to the measured voltage by the force sensor stack.
  Also the "actuator constant" and "sensor constant" are identified.
  This is done in Section ref:sec:test_apa_dynamics.
- Compare the measurements with the Simscape models (2DoF, Super-Element) in order to tuned/validate the models.
  This is explained in Section ref:sec:test_apa_simscape.

** Geometrical Measurements
<<sec:test_apa_geometrical_measurements>>

To measure the flatness of the two mechanical interfaces of the APA300ML, a small measurement bench is installed on top of a metrology granite with very good flatness.

As shown in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_flatness_setup, the APA is fixed to a clamp while a measuring probe[fn:3] is used to measure the height of 4 points on each of the APA300ML interfaces.

From the X-Y-Z coordinates of the measured 8 points, the flatness is estimated by best fitting[fn:4] a plane through all the points.

** Electrical Measurements
<<sec:test_apa_electrical_measurements>>

From the documentation of the APA300ML, the total capacitance of the three stacks should be between $18\,\mu F$ and $26\,\mu F$ with a nominal capacitance of $20\,\mu F$.

The capacitance of the piezoelectric stacks found in the APA300ML have been measured with the LCR meter[fn:1] shown in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_lcr_meter.
The two stacks used as an actuator and the stack used as a force sensor are measured separately.

#+name: fig:test_apa_lcr_meter
#+caption: LCR Meter used for the measurements
#+attr_latex: :width 0.6\linewidth
[[file:figs/test_apa_lcr_meter.jpg]]

The measured capacitance are summarized in Table ref:tab:test_apa_capacitance and the average capacitance of one stack is $\approx 5 \mu F$.
However, the measured capacitance of the stacks of "APA 3" is only half of the expected capacitance.
This may indicate a manufacturing defect.

The measured capacitance is found to be lower than the specified one.
This may be due to the fact that the manufacturer measures the capacitance with large signals ($-20\,V$ to $150\,V$) while it was here measured with small signals.

** Stroke and Hysteresis Measurement
<<sec:test_apa_stroke_measurements>>

The goal is here to verify that the stroke of the APA300ML is as specified in the datasheet.
To do so, one side of the APA is fixed to the granite, and a displacement probe[fn:2] is located on the other side as shown in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_stroke_bench.

Then, the voltage across the two actuator stacks is varied from $-20\,V$ to $150\,V$ using a DAC and a voltage amplifier.
Note that the voltage is here slowly varied as the displacement probe has a very low measurement bandwidth (see Figure ref:fig:test_apa_stroke_bench, left).

#+name: fig:test_apa_stroke_bench
#+caption: Bench to measured the APA stroke
#+attr_latex: :width 0.9\linewidth
[[file:figs/test_apa_stroke_bench.jpg]]

The measured APA displacement is shown as a function of the applied voltage in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_stroke_result, right.

Typical hysteresis curves for piezoelectric stack actuators can be observed.
The measured stroke is approximately $250\,\mu m$ when using only two of the three stacks, which is enough for the current application.
This is even above what is specified as the nominal stroke in the data-sheet ($304\,\mu m$, therefore $\approx 200\,\mu m$ if only two stacks are used).

It is clear from Figure ref:fig:test_apa_stroke_result that "APA 3" has an issue compared to the other units.
This confirms the abnormal electrical measurements made in Section ref:sec:test_apa_electrical_measurements.
This unit was send sent back to Cedrat and a new one was shipped back.
From now on, only the six APA that behave as expected will be used.

** Flexible Mode Measurement
SCHEDULED: <2024-03-27 Wed>
<<sec:test_apa_spurious_resonances>>

In this section, the flexible modes of the APA300ML are investigated both experimentally and using a Finite Element Model.

To experimentally estimate these modes, the APA is fixed on one end (see Figure ref:fig:test_apa_meas_setup_torsion).
A Laser Doppler Vibrometer[fn:6] is used to measure the difference of motion between two "red" points (i.e. the torsion of the APA along the vertical direction) and an instrumented hammer[fn:7] is used to excite the flexible modes.
Using this setup, the transfer function from the injected force to the measured rotation can be computed in different conditions and the frequency and mode shapes of the flexible modes can be estimated.

The flexible modes for the same condition (i.e. one mechanical interface of the APA300ML fixed) are estimated using a finite element software and the results are shown in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_mode_shapes.

** Introduction                                                      :ignore:
After the basic measurements on the APA were performed in Section ref:sec:test_apa_basic_meas, a new test bench is used to better characterize the APA.

This test bench is shown in Figure ref:fig:test_bench_apa and consists of the APA300ML fixed on one end to the fixed granite, and on the other end to the 5kg granite vertically guided with an air bearing.
An encoder is used to measure the relative motion between the two granites (i.e. the displacement of the APA).

This bench will be used to:
- measure the dynamics of the APA (from $V_a$ to $d_e$ and $d_a$ in Section ref:ssec:test_apa_meas_frf_disp, and from $V_a$ to $V_s$ in section ref:ssec:test_apa_meas_frf_force)
- estimate the added damping using Integral Force Feedback (Section ref:ssec:test_apa_iff_locus)

These measurements will also be used to tune the model of the APA in Section ref:sec:test_apa_simscape.

** Hysteresis
<<ssec:test_apa_hysteresis>>

As the payload is vertically guided without friction, the hysteresis of the APA can be estimated from the motion of the payload.

A quasi static sinusoidal excitation $V_a$ with an offset of $65\,V$ (halfway between $-20\,V$ and $150\,V$), and an amplitude varying from $4\,V$ up to $80\,V$.

For each excitation amplitude, the vertical displacement $d_e$ of the mass is measured and displayed as a function of the applied voltage..

#+begin_src matlab
%% Load measured data - hysteresis
apa_hyst = load('frf_data_1_hysteresis.mat', 't', 'u', 'de');

% Initial time set to zero

ampls = [0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 1, 2, 4]; % Excitation voltage amplitudes
#+end_src

The measured displacements as a function of the output voltages are shown in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_meas_hysteresis.
It is interesting to see that the hysteresis is increasing with the excitation amplitude.

** Axial stiffness
<<ssec:test_apa_stiffness>>

In order to estimate the stiffness of the APA, a weight with known mass $m_a = 6.4\,\text{kg}$ is added on top of the suspended granite and the deflection $d_e$ is measured using the encoder.

The APA stiffness can then be estimated from equation eqref:eq:test_apa_stiffness.

\begin{equation} \label{eq:test_apa_stiffness}
  k_{\text{apa}} = \frac{m_a g}{\Delta d_e}
\end{equation}

#+begin_src matlab
%% Load data for stiffness measurement
apa_nums = [1 2 4 5 6 8];
apa_mass = {};
for i = 1:length(apa_nums)
    apa_mass(i) = {load(sprintf('frf_data_%i_add_mass_closed_circuit.mat', apa_nums(i)), 't', 'de')};
    % The initial displacement is set to zero
    apa_mass{i}.de = apa_mass{i}.de - mean(apa_mass{i}.de(apa_mass{i}.t<11));
end

added_mass = 6.4; % Added mass [kg]
#+end_src

The measured displacement $d_e$ as a function of time is shown in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_meas_stiffness_time.
It can be seen that there are some drifts in the measured displacement (probably due to piezoelectric creep) and the that displacement does not come back to the initial position after the mass is removed (probably due to piezoelectric hysteresis).
These two effects induce some uncertainties in the measured stiffness.

The stiffnesses are computed for all the APA from the two displacements $d_1$ and $d_2$ (see Figure ref:fig:test_apa_meas_stiffness_time) leading to two stiffness estimations $k_1$ and $k_2$.
These estimated stiffnesses are summarized in Table ref:tab:test_apa_measured_stiffnesses and are found to be close to the nominal stiffness $k = 1.8\,N/\mu m$ found in the APA300ML manual.

|   6 |   1.7 |  1.92 |
|   8 |  1.73 |  1.98 |

The stiffness can also be computed using equation eqref:eq:test_apa_res_freq by knowing the main vertical resonance frequency $\omega_z \approx 95\,\text{Hz}$ (estimated by the dynamical measurements shown in section ref:ssec:test_apa_meas_dynamics) and the suspended mass $m_{\text{sus}} = 5.7\,\text{kg}$.

\begin{equation} \label{eq:test_apa_res_freq}
\omega_z = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m_{\text{sus}}}}
\end{equation}

The obtain stiffness is $k \approx 2\,N/\mu m$ which is close to the values found in the documentation and by the "static deflection" method.


However, changes in the electrical impedance connected to the piezoelectric stacks impacts the mechanical compliance (or stiffness) of the piezoelectric stack [[cite:&reza06_piezoel_trans_vibrat_contr_dampin chap. 2]].

To estimate this effect, the stiffness of the APA if measured using the "static deflection" method in two cases:
- $k_{\text{os}}$: piezoelectric stacks left unconnected (or connect to the high impedance ADC)
- $k_{\text{sc}}$: piezoelectric stacks short circuited (or connected to the voltage amplifier with small output impedance)

The open-circuit stiffness is estimated at $k_{\text{oc}} \approx 2.3\,N/\mu m$ and the closed-circuit stiffness $k_{\text{sc}} \approx 1.7\,N/\mu m$.

** Dynamics

In this section, the dynamics of the system from the excitation voltage $u$ to encoder measured displacement $d_e$  and to the force sensor voltage $V_s$ is identified.

The obtained transfer functions for the 6 APA between the excitation voltage $u$ and the encoder displacement $d_e$ are shown in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_frf_encoder.
The obtained transfer functions are close to a mass-spring-damper system.
The following can be observed:
- A "stiffness line" indicating a static gain equal to $\approx -17\,\mu m/V$.
  The minus sign comes from the fact that an increase in voltage stretches the piezoelectric stack that then reduces the height of the APA
- A lightly damped resonance at $95\,\text{Hz}$
- A "mass line" up to $\approx 800\,\text{Hz}$, above which some resonances appear. These additional resonances might be coming from the limited stiffness of the encoder support or from the limited compliance of the APA support.

#+RESULTS:
[[file:figs/test_apa_frf_encoder.png]]

The dynamics from $u$ to the measured voltage across the sensor stack $V_s$ is also identified and shown in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_frf_force.

A lightly damped resonance is observed at $95\,\text{Hz}$ and a lightly damped anti-resonance at $41\,\text{Hz}$.
No additional resonances is present up to at least $2\,\text{kHz}$ indicating at Integral Force Feedback can be applied without stability issues from high frequency flexible modes.

As illustrated by the Root Locus, the poles of the closed-loop system converges to the zeros of the open-loop plant.
Suppose that a controller with a very high gain is implemented such that the voltage $V_s$ across the sensor stack is zero.
In that case, because of the very high controller gain, no stress and strain is present on the sensor stack (and on the actuator stacks are well, as they are both in series).
Such closed-loop system would therefore virtually corresponds to a system for which the piezoelectric stacks have been removed and just the mechanical shell is kept.
From this analysis, the axial stiffness of the shell can be estimated to be $k_{\text{shell}} = 5.7 \cdot (2\pi \cdot 41)^2 = 0.38\,N/\mu m$.
# TODO - Compare with FEM result

Such reasoning can lead to very interesting insight into the system just from an open-loop identification.

All the identified dynamics of the six APA300ML (both when looking at the encoder in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_frf_encoder and at the force sensor in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_frf_force) are almost identical, indicating good manufacturing repeatability for the piezoelectric stacks and the mechanical lever.

** Effect of the resistor on the IFF Plant
<<ssec:test_apa_resistance_sensor_stack>>

A resistor $R \approx 80.6\,k\Omega$ is added in parallel with the sensor stack which has the effect to form a high pass filter with the capacitance of the stack.

As explain before, this is done for two reasons:
1. Limit the voltage offset due to the input bias current of the ADC
2. Limit the low frequency gain

The (low frequency) transfer function from $u$ to $V_s$ with and without this resistor have been measured and are compared in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_effect_resistance.
It is confirmed that the added resistor as the effect of adding an high pass filter with a cut-off frequency of $\approx 0.35\,\text{Hz}$.

First, the transfer function eqref:eq:test_apa_iff_manual_fit is manually tuned to match the identified dynamics from generated voltage $u$ to the measured sensor stack voltage $V_s$ in Section ref:ssec:test_apa_meas_dynamics.

The obtained parameter values are $\omega_{\textsc{hpf}} = 0.4\, \text{Hz}$, $\omega_{z} = 42.7\, \text{Hz}$, $\xi_{z} = 0.4\,\%$, $\omega_{p} = 95.2\, \text{Hz}$, $\xi_{p} = 2\,\%$ and $g_0 = 0.64$.

\begin{equation} \label{eq:test_apa_iff_manual_fit}

The implemented Integral Force Feedback Controller transfer function is shown in equation eqref:eq:test_apa_Kiff_formula.
It contains an high pass filter (cut-off frequency of $2\,\text{Hz}$) to limit the low frequency gain, a low pass filter to add integral action above $20\,\text{Hz}$, a second low pass filter to add robustness to high frequency resonances and a tunable gain $g$.

\begin{equation} \label{eq:test_apa_Kiff_formula}
K_{\textsc{iff}}(s) = -10 \cdot g \cdot \frac{s}{s + 2\pi \cdot 2} \cdot \frac{1}{1 + 2\pi \cdot 20} \cdot \frac{1}{s + 2\pi\cdot 2000}
\end{equation}

To estimate how the dynamics of the APA changes when the Integral Force Feedback controller is implemented, the test bench shown in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_iff_schematic is used.
The transfer function from the "damped" plant input $u\prime$ to the encoder displacement $d_e$ is identified for several IFF controller gains $g$.

The identified dynamics are then fitted by second order transfer functions.
The comparison between the identified damped dynamics and the fitted second order transfer functions is done in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_identified_damped_plants for different gains $g$.
It is clear that large amount of damping is added when the gain is increased and that the frequency of the pole is shifted to lower frequencies.

The evolution of the pole in the complex plane as a function of the controller gain $g$ (i.e. the "root locus") is computed:
- using the IFF plant model eqref:eq:test_apa_iff_manual_fit and the implemented controller eqref:eq:test_apa_Kiff_formula
- from the fitted transfer functions of the damped plants experimentally identified for several controller gains

The two obtained root loci are compared in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_iff_root_locus and are in good agreement considering that the damped plants were only fitted using a second order transfer function.

** Introduction                                                      :ignore:
In this section, a simscape model (Figure ref:fig:test_apa_bench_model) of the measurement bench is used to compare the model of the APA with the measured frequency response functions.

After the transfer functions are extracted from the model (Section ref:sec:simscape_bench_apa_first_id), the comparison of the obtained dynamics with the measured FRF will permit to:
1. Estimate the "actuator constant" and "sensor constant" (Section ref:sec:simscape_bench_apa_id_constants)
- "Actuator constant": Gain from the applied voltage $V_a$ to the generated Force $F_a$
- "Sensor constant": Gain from the sensor stack strain $\delta L$ to the generated voltage $V_s$
2. Tune the model of the APA to match the measured dynamics (Section ref:sec:simscape_bench_apa_tune_2dof_model)

** Two Degrees of Freedom APA Model
<<ssec:test_apa_2dof_model>>

The APA model shown in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_2dof_model is adapted from cite:souleille18_concep_activ_mount_space_applic.

It can be decomposed into three components:
- the shell whose axial properties are represented by $k_1$ and $c_1$
- the actuator stacks whose contribution in the axial stiffness is represented by $k_a$ and $c_a$.
  A force source $\tau$ represents the axial force induced by the force sensor stacks.
  The gain $g_a$ (in $N/m$) is used to convert the applied voltage $V_a$ to the axial force $\tau$
- the actuator stacks whose contribution in the axial stiffness is represented by $k_e$ and $c_e$.
  A "strain sensor" $d_L$, and a gain $g_s$ (in $V/m$) that converts this strain into a generated voltage

Such simple model has some limitations:
- it only represents the axial characteristics of the APA (infinitely rigid in other directions)
- some physical insights are lost such as the amplification factor, the real stress and strain on the piezoelectric stacks
- it is fully linear and therefore the creep and hysteresis of the piezoelectric stacks are not modelled

9 parameters ($m$, $k_1$, $c_1$, $k_e$, $c_e$, $k_a$, $c_a$, $g_s$ and $g_a$) have to be tuned such that the dynamics of the model (Figure ref:fig:test_apa_2dof_model_simscape) well represents the identified dynamics in Section ref:sec:test_apa_dynamics.

First, the mass supported by the APA300ML can simply be estimated from the geometry and density of the different parts or by directly measuring it using a precise weighing scale.
Both methods leads to an estimated mass of $5.7\,\text{kg}$.

Then, the axial stiffness of the shell was estimated at $k_1 = 0.38\,N/\mu m$ in Section ref:ssec:test_apa_meas_dynamics from the frequency of the anti-resonance seen on Figure ref:fig:test_apa_frf_force.
Similarly, $c_1$ can be estimated from the damping ratio of the same anti-resonance and is found to be close to $20\,Ns/m$.

Then, it is reasonable to make the assumption that the sensor stacks and the two actuator stacks have identical mechanical characteristics[fn:5].
Therefore, we have $k_e = 2 k_a$ and $c_e = 2 c_a$ as the actuator stack is composed of two stacks in series.
In that case, the total stiffness of the APA model is described by eqref:eq:test_apa_2dof_stiffness.

\begin{equation}\label{eq:test_apa_2dof_stiffness}
k_{\text{tot}} = k_1 + \frac{k_e k_a}{k_e + k_a} = k_1 + \frac{2}{3} k_a
\end{equation}

Knowing from eqref:eq:test_apa_tot_stiffness that the total stiffness is $k_{\text{tot}} = 2\,N/\mu m$, we get from eqref:eq:test_apa_2dof_stiffness that $k_a = 2.5\,N/\mu m$ and $k_e = 5\,N/\mu m$.

\begin{equation}\label{eq:test_apa_tot_stiffness}
\omega_0 = \frac{k_{\text{tot}}}{m} \Longrightarrow k_{\text{tot}} = m \omega_0^2 = 2\,N/\mu m \quad \text{with}\ m = 5.7\,\text{kg}\ \text{and}\ \omega_0 = 2\pi \cdot 95\, \text{rad}/s
\end{equation}

Then, $c_a$ (and therefore $c_e = 2 c_a$) can be tuned to match the damping ratio of the identified resonance.
$c_a = 100\,Ns/m$ and $c_e = 200\,Ns/m$ are obtained.

Finally, the two gains $g_s$ and $g_a$ can be used to match the gain of the identified transfer functions.

The obtained parameters of the model shown in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_2dof_model_simscape are summarized in Table ref:tab:test_apa_2dof_parameters.

** Obtained Dynamics
<<ssec:test_apa_2dof_model_result>>

The dynamics of the 2DoF APA300ML model is now extracted using optimized parameters (listed in Table ref:tab:test_apa_2dof_parameters) from the Simscape model.
It is compared with the experimental data in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_2dof_comp_frf.

A good match can be observed between the model and the experimental data, both for the encoder and for the force sensor.
This indicates that this model represents well the axial dynamics of the APA300ML.

In this section, a /super element/ of the Amplified Piezoelectric Actuator "APA300ML" is extracted using a Finite Element Software.
It is then imported in Simscape (using the stiffness and mass matrices) and it is included in the same model that was used in ref:sec:test_apa_model_2dof.

This procedure is illustrated in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_super_element_simscape.

- Show some parts of the mass and stiffness matrices?
- Say which materials were used?
- Maybe this was already explain earlier in the manuscript

** Identification of the Actuator and Sensor constants
<<ssec:test_apa_flexible_ga_gs>>

Once the APA300ML /super element/ is included in the Simscape model, the transfer function from $F_a$ to $d_L$ and $d_e$ can be identified.
The gains $g_a$ and $g_s$ can then be tuned such that the gain of the transfer functions are matching the identified ones.

By doing so, $g_s = 4.9\,V/\mu m$ and $g_a = 23.2\,N/V$ are obtained.

#+begin_src matlab
%% Identification of the actuator and sensor "constants"
% Initialize the APA as a flexible body with unity "constants"
n_hexapod.actuator = initializeAPA(...
    'type', 'flexible', ...
    'ga', 1, ...
    'gs', 1);

c_granite = 100; % Rought estimation of the damping added by the air bearing

% Identify the dynamics
G_norm = linearize(mdl, io, 0.0, opts);
G_norm.InputName  = {'u'};
G_norm.OutputName = {'Vs', 'de'};

% Load Identification Data to estimate the two gains
load('meas_apa_frf.mat', 'f', 'Ts', 'enc_frf', 'iff_frf', 'apa_nums');

% Actuator Constant in [N/V]
ga = -mean(abs(enc_frf(f>10 & f<20)))./dcgain(G_norm('de', 'u'));

% Sensor Constant in [V/m]
gs = -mean(abs(iff_frf(f>400 & f<500)))./(ga*abs(squeeze(freqresp(G_norm('Vs', 'u'), 1e3, 'Hz'))));
#+end_src


To make sure these "gains" are physically valid, it is possible to estimate them from physical properties of the piezoelectric stack material.

From [[cite:&fleming14_desig_model_contr_nanop_system p. 123]], the relation between relative displacement $d_L$ of the sensor stack and generated voltage $V_s$ is given by eqref:eq:test_apa_piezo_strain_to_voltage and from [[cite:&fleming10_integ_strain_force_feedb_high]] the relation between the force $F_a$ and the applied voltage $V_a$ is given by eqref:eq:test_apa_piezo_voltage_to_force.

\begin{subequations}
\begin{align}
  V_s &= \underbrace{\frac{d_{33}}{\epsilon^T s^D n}}_{g_s} d_L \label{eq:test_apa_piezo_strain_to_voltage} \\
  F_a &= \underbrace{d_{33} n k_a}_{g_a} \cdot V_a, \quad k_a = \frac{c^{E} A}{L} \label{eq:test_apa_piezo_voltage_to_force}
\end{align}
\end{subequations}

Parameters used in equations eqref:eq:test_apa_piezo_strain_to_voltage and eqref:eq:test_apa_piezo_voltage_to_force are described in Table ref:tab:test_apa_piezo_properties.

Unfortunately, the manufacturer of the stack was not willing to share the piezoelectric material properties of the stack used in the APA300ML.
However, based on available properties of the APA300ML stacks in the data-sheet, the soft Lead Zirconate Titanate "THP5H" from Thorlabs seemed to match quite well the observed properties.
The properties of this "THP5H" material used to compute $g_a$ and $g_s$ are listed in Table ref:tab:test_apa_piezo_properties.

From these parameters, $g_s = 5.1\,V/\mu m$ and $g_a = 26\,N/V$ were obtained which are very close to the identified constants using the experimentally identified transfer functions.

** Comparison of the obtained dynamics

The obtained dynamics using the /super element/ with the tuned "sensor gain" and "actuator gain" are compared with the experimentally identified frequency response functions in Figure ref:fig:test_apa_super_element_comp_frf.

A good match between the model and the experimental results is observed.
- the /super element/

This model represents fairly

The flexible model is a bit "soft" as compared with the experimental results.

This method can be used to model piezoelectric stack actuators as well as amplified piezoelectric stack actuators.

* Conclusion
<<sec:test_apa_conclusion>>

- Compare 2DoF and FEM models (usefulness of the two)
- Good match between all the APA: will simplify the modeling and control of the nano-hexapod
- No advantage of the FEM model here (as only uniaxial behavior is checked), but may be useful later
