* Introduction :ignore:
In this document, a test-bench is used to characterize the struts of the nano-hexapod.
Each strut includes (Figure ref:fig:test_struts_picture_strut):
- 2 flexible joints at each ends.
These flexible joints have been characterized in a separate test bench (see ...).
- 1 Amplified Piezoelectric Actuator (APA300ML) (described in Section ...).
Two stacks are used as an actuator and one stack as a (force) sensor.
- 1 encoder (Renishaw Vionic) that has been characterized in a separate test bench (see ...).

#+caption: One strut including two flexible joints, an amplified piezoelectric actuator and an encoder
#+attr_latex: :width 0.8\linewidth
[[file:figs/test_struts_picture_strut.jpg]]
Then the struts are mounted (procedure described in Section ref:sec:test_struts_mounting), and are fixed to the same measurement bench.
The goals are to:
- Section ref:sec:test_struts_dynamical_meas: Identify the dynamics from the generated DAC voltage to:
- the sensors stack generated voltage
- the measured displacement by the encoder
- the measured displacement by the interferometer (representing encoders that would be fixed to the nano-hexapod's plates instead of the struts)
- Section ref:sec:test_struts_simscape: Compare the measurements with the Simscape model of the struts and tune the models
The final goal of the work presented in this document is to have an accurate Simscape model of the struts that can then be included in the Simscape model of the nano-hexapod.

** Introduction :ignore:
** Mounting Bench
A mounting bench is used to greatly simply the mounting of the struts as well as ensuring the correct strut length and coaxiality of the flexible joint's interfaces.
This is very important in order to not loose any stroke when the struts will be mounted on the nano-hexapod.
A CAD view of the mounting bench is shown in Figure ref:fig:test_struts_mounting_bench_first_concept.
#+name: fig:test_struts_mounting_bench_first_concept
#+caption: CAD view of the mounting bench
#+attr_latex: :width 0.6\linewidth
[[file:figs/test_struts_mounting_bench_first_concept.png]]
The main part of the bench is here to ensure both the correct strut length and strut coaxiality as shown in Figure ref:fig:test_struts_mounting_step_0.

The tight tolerances of this element has been verified as shown in Figure ref:fig:test_struts_check_dimensions_bench and were found to comply with the requirements.
The flexible joints are rigidly fixed to cylindrical tools shown in Figures ref:fig:test_struts_cylindrical_mounting_part_top and ref:fig:test_struts_cylindrical_mounting_part_bot which are then mounted on the mounting tool shown in Figure ref:fig:test_struts_mounting_step_0.
This cylindrical tool is here to protect the flexible joints when tightening the screws and therefore applying large torque.
** Mounting Procedure
The mounting procedure is as follows:
1. Screw flexible joints inside the cylindrical interface element shown in Figure ref:fig:test_struts_cylindrical_mounting
2. Fix the two interface elements. One of the two should be clamped, the other one should have its axial rotation free.
Visually align the clamped one horizontally. (Figure ref:fig:test_struts_mounting_step_1)
3. Put cylindrical washers, APA and interface pieces on top of the flexible joints (Figure ref:fig:test_struts_mounting_step_2)
4. Put the 4 screws just in contact such that everything is correctly positioned and such that the "free" flexible joint is correctly oriented
5. Put the 8 lateral screws in contact
6. Tighten the 4 screws to fix the APA on the two flexible joints (using a torque screwdriver)
7. Remove the 4 laterals screws
8. (optional) Put the APA horizontally and fix the encoder and align it to maximize the contrast (Figure ref:fig:test_struts_mounting_step_3)
9. Disassemble to have an properly mounted strut (Figure ref:fig:test_struts_mounting_step_4) for which the coaxiality between the two flexible joint's interfaces is good

* Measurement of flexible modes
:PROPERTIES:
:header-args:matlab+: :tangle matlab/test_struts_1_flexible_modes.m
:END:
<>
** Introduction
These modes are present when flexible joints are fixed to the ends of the APA300ML.
To experimentally measure the frequency of these modes, the struts are mounted (both with and without the encoder).
Then, each end of the strut is fixed to a vertically guided stage as shown in Figure ref:fig:test_struts_meas_spur_res_struts_1_enc.
From a Finite Element Model of the struts, it have been found that three main resonances are foreseen to be problematic for the control of the APA300ML (Figure ref:fig:test_struts_mode_shapes):
- Mode in X-bending at 189Hz
- Mode in Y-bending at 285Hz
- Mode in Z-torsion at 400Hz

** Measurement Setup
A Laser vibrometer is measuring the difference of motion between two beam path (red points in Figure ref:fig:test_struts_meas_modes).
The strut is excited with an instrumented hammer and the transfer function from the hammer to the measured rotation is computed.
The "X-bending" mode is measured as shown in Figure ref:fig:test_struts_meas_x_bending.
The "Y-bending" mode is measured as shown in Figure ref:fig:test_struts_meas_y_bending.
Finally, the "Z-torsion" is measured as shown in Figure ref:fig:test_struts_meas_z_torsion.
This is done with and without the encoder fixed to the strut.

** Conclusion :ignore:
Table ref:tab:test_struts_spur_mode_freqs summarizes the measured resonance frequencies as well as the computed ones using the Finite Element Model.
#+begin_important
From the values in Table ref:tab:test_struts_spur_mode_freqs, it is shown that:
- the resonance frequencies of the 3 modes are only slightly increasing when the encoder is removed
- the computed resonance frequencies from the FEM are very close to the measured one when the encoder is fixed to the strut

** Measurement on Strut 1
<>
*** Introduction :ignore:
Measurements are first performed on one of the strut.
In Section ref:sec:meas_strut_1_no_encoder, the dynamics of the strut is measured without the encoder attached to it.
Then in Section ref:sec:meas_strut_1_encoder, the encoder is attached to the struts, and the dynamic is identified.
*** Without Encoder
<>
Similarly to what was done for the identification of the APA, the identification is performed in three steps:
1. White noise excitation with small amplitude.
This is used to determine the main resonance of the system.
2. Sweep sine excitation with the amplitude lowered around the resonance.
The sweep sine is from 10Hz to 400Hz.
3. High frequency noise.
The noise is band-passed between 300Hz and 2kHz.
Then, the result of the second identification is used between 10Hz and 350Hz and the result of the third identification if used between 350Hz and 2kHz.

The dynamics from the excitation voltage $u$ to the measured displacement by the encoder $d_e$ presents much more complicated behavior than the transfer function to the displacement as measured by the Interferometer (compared in Figure ref:fig:strut_1_comp_enc_int).
It will be further investigated why the two dynamics as so different and what are causing all these resonances.

These resonances correspond to parasitic resonances of the strut itself.
They are very close to what was estimated using a finite element model of the strut (Figure ref:fig:test_struts_mode_shapes):
- Mode in X-bending at 189Hz
- Mode in Y-bending at 285Hz
- Mode in Z-torsion at 400Hz

The resonances seen by the encoder in Figure ref:fig:strut_1_spurious_resonances are indeed corresponding to the modes of the strut as shown in Figure ref:fig:test_struts_mode_shapes.

** Comparison of all the Struts
<>
*** Introduction :ignore:
Now all struts are measured using the same procedure and test bench as in Section ref:sec:meas_strut_1.
*** FRF Identification
The identification of the struts dynamics is performed in two steps:
1. The excitation signal is a white noise with small amplitude.
This is used to estimate the low frequency dynamics.
2. Then a high frequency noise band-passed between 300Hz and 2kHz is used to estimate the high frequency dynamics.
Then, the result of the first identification is used between 10Hz and 350Hz and the result of the second identification if used between 350Hz and 2kHz.
Here are the leg numbers that have been measured.

end
%% Second identification (high frequency noise)
leg_noise_hf = {};
for i = 1:length(strut_nums)

#+begin_important
There is a very large variability of the dynamics as measured by the encoder as shown in Figure ref:fig:struts_frf_dvf_plant_tf.
Even-though the same peaks are seen for all of the struts (95Hz, 200Hz, 300Hz, 400Hz), the amplitude of the peaks are not the same.
Moreover, the location or even the presence of complex conjugate zeros is changing from one strut to the other.
All of this will be explained in Section ref:sec:simscape_bench_struts thanks to the Simscape model.
#+end_important
Then, the transfer function from the DAC output voltage $u$ to the measured displacement by the Attocube is computed for all the struts and shown in Figure ref:fig:struts_frf_int_plant_tf.
All the struts are giving very similar FRF.

*** Misalignment of the APA and flexible joints
The misalignment between the two flexible joints and the APA has been measured for all the struts:
- the strut is fixed to the mounting bench
- using an indicator, the height difference from the flexible joints and the APA is measured both for the top and bottom joints and on both sides
- then it is possible to obtain the misalignment for both flexible joints
The raw measurements are shown in Table ref:tab:meas_misalignment_struts_raw.
As the flexible joint's "thickness" is 1mm larger than the APA "thickness", ideally (i.e. if it were perfectly centered) we would measure =-0.50mm= each time.

The misalignment of the APA and flexible joints is quite large and variable from one strut to the other.
#+end_important
*** Conclusion
#+begin_important
All the struts are giving very consistent behavior from the excitation voltage $u$ to the force sensor generated voltage $V_s$ and to the interferometer measured displacement $d_a$.
However, the dynamics from $u$ to the encoder measurement $d_e$ is much more complex and variable from one strut to the other most likely due to poor alignment of the APA with respect to the flexible joints.

*** FRF Identification - Setup
The excitation signal is a low pass filtered white noise.
Both the encoder and the force sensor voltage are measured.
Here are the leg numbers that have been measured.
#+begin_src matlab
%% Numnbers of the measured legs
strut_nums = [1 2 3 4 5 6];
#+end_src
#+begin_src matlab
%% First identification (low frequency noise)
leg_noise = {};
for i = 1:length(strut_nums)
leg_noise(i) = {load(sprintf('frf_struts_align_%i_noise.mat', strut_nums(i)), 'u', 'Vs', 'de')};
end
#+end_src
#+begin_src matlab
Ts = 1e-4; % Sampling Time [s]
Nfft = floor(1/Ts);
win = hanning(Nfft);
Noverlap = floor(Nfft/2);
#+end_src
We get the frequency vector that will be the same for all the frequency domain analysis.
#+begin_src matlab
% Only used to have the frequency vector "f"
[~, f] = tfestimate(leg_noise{1}.u, leg_noise{1}.de, win, Noverlap, Nfft, 1/Ts);
#+end_src
*** FRF Identification - Encoder
In this section, the dynamics from $u$ to $d_e$ (encoder) is identified.
Then, the transfer function from the DAC output voltage $u$ to the measured displacement by the encoder $d_e$ is computed:
#+begin_src matlab
%% Transfer function estimation
enc_frf = zeros(length(f), length(strut_nums));
for i = 1:length(strut_nums)
enc_frf(:, i) = tfestimate(leg_noise{i}.u, leg_noise{i}.de, win, Noverlap, Nfft, 1/Ts);
end
%% Transfer function estimation
iff_frf = zeros(length(f), length(strut_nums));
for i = 1:length(strut_nums)
iff_frf(:, i) = tfestimate(leg_noise{i}.u, leg_noise{i}.Vs, win, Noverlap, Nfft, 1/Ts);
end
#+end_src
The obtained transfer functions are shown in Figure ref:fig:struts_align_frf_dvf_plant_tf.

Even though the struts are much better aligned, we still observe high variability between the struts for the transfer function from $u$ to $d_e$.

#+begin_important
Having the struts well aligned does not change significantly the obtained dynamics.

[[file:figs/test_struts_simscape_model.png]]
This Simscape model is used to:
- compare the measured FRF with the modelled FRF
- help the correct understanding/interpretation of the results
- tune the model of the struts (APA, flexible joints, encoder)
This study is structured as follow:
- Section ref:ssec:test_struts_comp_model: the measured FRF are compared with the Simscape model.
- Section ref:ssec:test_struts_effect_misalignment: the flexible APA model is used, and the effect of a misalignment of the APA and flexible joints is studied.
It is found that the misalignment has a large impact on the dynamics from $u$ to $d_e$.
- Section ref:ssec:test_struts_effect_joint_stiffness: the effect of the flexible joint's stiffness on the dynamics is studied.
It is found that the axial stiffness of the joints has a large impact on the location of the zeros on the transfer function from $V_s$ to $d_e$.

The 2-DoF model is quite effective in modelling the transfer function from actuator to force sensor and from actuator to interferometer (Figure ref:fig:comp_strut_plant_after_opt).
But it is not effective in modeling the transfer function from actuator to encoder (Figure ref:fig:comp_strut_plant_iff_after_opt).
This is due to the fact that resonances greatly affecting the encoder reading are not modelled.
In the next section, flexible model of the APA will be used to model such resonances.

** Effect of a misalignment of the APA and flexible joints on the transfer function from actuator to encoder
<>
*** Introduction :ignore:
As shown in Figure ref:fig:struts_frf_dvf_plant_tf, the dynamics from actuator to encoder for all the struts is very different.
This could be explained by a large variability in the alignment of the flexible joints and the APA (at the time, the alignment pins were not used).
Depending on the alignment, the spurious resonances of the struts (Figure ref:fig:test_struts_mode_shapes) can be excited differently.
For instance, consider Figure ref:fig:test_struts_misalign_schematic where there is a misalignment in the $y$ direction.
In such case, the mode at 200Hz is foreseen to be more excited as the misalignment $d_y$ increases and therefore the dynamics from the actuator to the encoder should also change around 200Hz.
#+name: fig:test_struts_misalign_schematic
#+caption: Mis-alignement between the joints and the APA
#+attr_latex: :width 0.8\linewidth
[[file:figs/test_struts_misalign_schematic.png]]
If the misalignment is in the $x$ direction, the mode at 285Hz should be more affected whereas a misalignment in the $z$ direction should not affect these resonances.
Such statement is studied in this section.
*** Perfectly aligned APA
Let's first consider that the strut is perfectly mounted such that the two flexible joints and the APA are aligned.
#+begin_src matlab
%% Initialize Simscape data
n_hexapod.flex_bot = initializeBotFlexibleJoint('type', '4dof');
n_hexapod.flex_top = initializeTopFlexibleJoint('type', '4dof');
n_hexapod.actuator = initializeAPA('type', 'flexible');
#+end_src
And define the inputs and outputs of the models:
- Input: voltage generated by the DAC
- Output: measured displacement by the encoder
The transfer function is identified and shown in Figure ref:fig:comp_enc_frf_align_perfect.
#+begin_src matlab
%% Identification
Gs = exp(-s*1e-4)*linearize(mdl, io, 0.0, opts);
Gs.InputName = {'u'};
Gs.OutputName = {'Vs', 'de', 'da'};
#+end_src
From Figure ref:fig:comp_enc_frf_align_perfect, it is clear that:
1. The model with perfect alignment is not matching the measured FRF
2. The mode at 200Hz is not present in the identified dynamics of the Simscape model
3. The measured FRF have different shapes

#+RESULTS:

#+begin_question
Why is the flexible mode of the strut at 200Hz is not seen in the model in Figure ref:fig:comp_enc_frf_align_perfect?
Probably because the presence of this mode is not due because of the "unbalanced" mass of the encoder, but rather because of the misalignment of the APA with respect to the two flexible joints.
This will be verified in the next sections.

#+RESULTS:
[[file:figs/effect_misalignment_y.png]]
#+begin_important
The alignment of the APA with the flexible joints as a *huge* influence on the dynamics from actuator voltage to measured displacement by the encoder.
The misalignment in the $y$ direction mostly influences:
- the presence of the flexible mode at 200Hz
- the location of the complex conjugate zero between the first two resonances:
- if $d_y < 0$: there is no zero between the two resonances and possibly not even between the second and third ones
- if $d_y > 0$: there is a complex conjugate zero between the first two resonances
- the location of the high frequency complex conjugate zeros at 500Hz (secondary effect, as the axial stiffness of the joint also has large effect on the position of this zero)

#+begin_important
By tuning the misalignment of the APA with respect to the flexible joints, it is possible to obtain a good fit between the model and the measurements (Figure ref:fig:comp_all_struts_corrected_misalign).
If encoders are to be used when fixed on the struts, it is therefore very important to properly align the APA and the flexible joints when mounting the struts.
In the future, a "pin" will be used to better align the APA with the flexible joints.
We can expect the amplitude of the spurious resonances to decrease.

** Effect of flexible joint's characteristics
<>
*** Introduction :ignore:
As the struts are composed of one APA and two flexible joints, it is obvious that the flexible joint characteristics will change the dynamic behavior of the struts.
Using the Simscape model, the effect of the flexible joint's characteristics on the dynamics as measured on the test bench are studied:
- Section ref:sec:struts_effect_bending_stiff_joints: the effects of a change of bending stiffness is studied
- Section ref:sec:struts_effect_axial_stiff_joints: the effects of a change of axial stiffness is studied
- Section ref:sec:struts_effect_bending_damping_joints: the effects of a change of bending damping is studied
The studied dynamics is between $u$ and the encoder displacement $d_e$.

#+begin_important
The axial stiffness of the flexible joint has a large impact on the frequency of the complex conjugate zero.
Using the measured FRF on the test-bench, if is therefore possible to estimate the axial stiffness of the flexible joints from the location of the zero.
This method gives nice match between the measured FRF and the one extracted from the simscape model, however it could give not so accurate values of the joint's axial stiffness as other factors are also influencing the location of the zero.
Using this method, an axial stiffness of $70 N/\mu m$ is found to give good results (and is reasonable based on the finite element models).

Then the identification is performed for all the values of the bending damping.
#+begin_src matlab
%% Idenfity the transfer function from actuator to encoder for all bending dampins
Gs = {zeros(length(cRs), 1)};
for i = 1:length(cRs)
n_hexapod.flex_bot = initializeBotFlexibleJoint(...
'type', '4dof', ...
'cRx', cRs(i), ...
'cRy', cRs(i));
n_hexapod.flex_top = initializeTopFlexibleJoint(...

G = exp(-s*1e-4)*linearize(mdl, io, 0.0, opts);
G.InputName = {'u'};
