<p>
In this document, a test-bench is used to characterize the struts of the nano-hexapod.
</p>
<p>
Each strut includes:
</p>
<ul class="org-ul">
<li>2 flexible joints at each ends. This flexible joints have been characterized in a <a href="../test-bench-nass-flexible-joints/test-bench-flexible-joints.html">separate test bench</a>.</li>
<li>one Amplified Piezoelectric Actuator (APA300ML) (described in Section <a href="#orgd53a200">1</a>)</li>
<li>one encoder (Renishaw Vionci) that has been characterized in a <a href="../test-bench-vionic/test-bench-vionic.html">separate test bench</a>.</li>
</ul>
<p>
The goal here, is to first characterize the APA300ML in terms of:
</p>
<ul class="org-ul">
<li>The, geometric features, electrical capacitance, stroke, hysteresis, spurious resonances.
This is performed in Section <a href="#orga73b0c2">2</a>.</li>
<li>The dynamics from the voltage applied on the actuator stacks to the induced displacement, and to the measured voltage by the force sensor stack.
Also the &ldquo;actuator constant&rdquo; and &ldquo;sensor constant&rdquo; are identified.
This is done in Section <a href="#orga09bba2">3</a>.</li>
<li>Compare the measurements with the Simscape models (2DoF, Super-Element) in order to tuned/validate the models.
This is explained in Section <a href="#org4a03d97">4</a>.</li>
</ul>
<p>
Then the struts are mounted, and are fixed to the same measurement bench.
Similarly, the goals are to:
</p>
<ul class="org-ul">
<li>Identify the dynamics from the generated DAC voltage (going to the PD200 voltage amplitifer and then to the actuator stacks) to (Section <a href="#org944c983">5</a>):
<ul class="org-ul">
<li>the sensors stack generated voltage</li>
<li>the measured displacement by the encoder</li>
<li>the measured displacement by the interferometer</li>
</ul></li>
<li>Compare the measurements with the Simscape model of the struts and tune the models (Section <a href="#org651d433">6</a>)</li>
</ul>
<p>
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.

The Amplified Piezoelectric Actuator (APA) used is the APA300ML from Cedrat technologies (Figure <a href="#orgf722d6a">1</a>).

Simscape models of the APA300ML are developed:

<ul class="org-ul">
<li>Section <a href="#org14be1df">1.1</a>: a simple 2 degrees of freedom (DoF) model</li>
<li>Section <a href="#org45608cc">1.2</a>: a &ldquo;flexible&rdquo; model using a &ldquo;super-element&rdquo; extracted from a Finite Element Model of the APA</li>
</ul>
<p>
For both models, an &ldquo;actuator constant&rdquo; and a &ldquo;sensor constant&rdquo; are used.
These constants are used to link the electrical domain and the mechanical domain.
They are described in Section <a href="#orga4a496c">1.3</a>.

A voltage \(V_a\) applied to the actuator stacks will induce an actuator force \(F_a\):
</p>
\begin{equation}
F_a = g_a \cdot V_a
\end{equation}
<p>
A change of length \(dl\) of the sensor stack will induce a voltage \(V_s\):
</p>
\begin{equation}
V_s = g_s \cdot dl

<p>
We wish here to experimental measure \(g_a\) and \(g_s\).

The results are shown in Figure <a href="#orge303955">24</a>.
We observe a first peak at 267Hz, which corresponds to the X-bending mode that was measured at 280Hz.
And then a second peak at 415Hz, which corresponds to the X-bending mode that was measured at 412Hz.
The mode in pure torsion is probably at higher frequency (peak around 1kHz?).

The two FRF are compared in Figure <a href="#orgdbf0fca">25</a>.

Maybe the resonance at 800Hz, or even higher resonances. It is difficult to conclude here.

<p>
When two flexible joints are fixed at each ends of the APA, the APA is mostly in a free/free condition in terms of bending/torsion (the bending/torsional stiffness of the joints being very small).
</p>
<p>
In the current tests, the APA are in a fixed/free condition.
Therefore, it is quite obvious that we measured higher resonance frequencies than what is foreseen for the struts.
It is however quite interesting that there is a factor \(\approx \sqrt{2}\) between the two (increased of the stiffness by a factor 2?).

<p>
In order to estimate the stiffness of the APA, a weight with known mass \(m_a\) is added on top of the suspended granite and the deflection \(d_e\) is measured using the encoder.
The APA stiffness is then:
</p>
\begin{equation}
k_{\text{apa}} = \frac{m_a g}{d}
\end{equation}
<p>
Here, a mass of 6.4 kg is used:

There is some imprecision in the measurement as there are some drifts that are probably due to some creep.

The stiffness is then computed as follows:

<div class="outline-text-5" id="text-4-3-1-1">
<p>
Using the measurement test-bench, it is rather easy the determine the static gain between the applied voltage \(V_a\) to the induced displacement \(d\).
</p>
\begin{equation}
d = g_{d/V_a} \cdot V_a
\end{equation}
<p>
Using the Simscape model of the APA, it is possible to determine the static gain between the actuator force \(F_a\) to the induced displacement \(d\):
</p>
\begin{equation}
d = g_{d/F_a} \cdot F_a
\end{equation}
<p>
From the two gains, it is then easy to determine \(g_a\):
</p>
\begin{equation}
g_a = \frac{F_a}{V_a} = \frac{F_a}{d} \cdot \frac{d}{V_a} = \frac{g_{d/V_a}}{g_{d/F_a}}

<div class="outline-text-5" id="text-4-3-1-2">
<p>
Similarly, it is easy to determine the gain from the excitation voltage \(V_a\) to the voltage generated by the sensor stack \(V_s\):
</p>
\begin{equation}
V_s = g_{V_s/V_a} V_a
\end{equation}
<p>
Note here that there is an high pass filter formed by the piezo capacitor and parallel resistor.
</p>
<p>
The gain can be computed from the dynamical identification and taking the gain at the wanted frequency (above the first resonance).
</p>
<p>
Using the simscape model, compute the gain at the same frequency from the actuator force \(F_a\) to the strain of the sensor stack \(dl\):
</p>
\begin{equation}
dl = g_{dl/F_a} F_a
\end{equation}
<p>
Then, the &ldquo;sensor&rdquo; constant is:
</p>
\begin{equation}
g_s = \frac{V_s}{dl} = \frac{V_s}{V_a} \cdot \frac{V_a}{F_a} \cdot \frac{F_a}{dl} = \frac{g_{V_s/V_a}}{g_a \cdot g_{dl/F_a}}

<p>
What is strange is that the encoder is measuring a larger displacement than the interferometer.
That should be the opposite.
Maybe is is caused by the fact that the APA is experiencing some bending and therefore a larger motion is measured on the encoder.

<p>
The 2-DoF model is quite effective in modelling the transfer function from actuator to force sensor and from actuator to interferometer (Figure <a href="#org6e1283f">85</a>).
But it is not effective in modeling the transfer function from actuator to encoder (Figure <a href="#org9d96d36">86</a>).
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.

<div class="outline-text-3" id="text-6-3">
<p>
<a id="org642e689"></a>
</p>
<p>
As shown in Figure <a href="#orgc01ff59">75</a>, the dynamics from actuator to encoder for all the struts is very different.
</p>
<p>
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).
</p>
<p>
Depending on the alignment, the spurious resonances of the struts (Figure <a href="#orgdaae85a">17</a>) can be excited differently.

</div>
<p>
For instance, consider Figure <a href="#org86ac8c1">88</a> 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.
</p>

</p>
<p><span class="figure-number">Figure 88: </span>Mis-alignement between the joints and the APA</p>
</div>
<p>
If the misalignment is in the \(x\) direction, the mode at 300Hz should be more affected whereas a misalignment in the \(z\) direction should not affect these resonances.

<p>
Such statement is studied in this section.

<p>
By tuning the misalignment of the APA with respect to the flexible joints, it is relatively easy to obtain a good fit between the model and the measurements (Figure <a href="#org536242e">92</a>).
</p>
<p>
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.
</p>
<p>
This should be achieve by using alignment pins.

<p>
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 le 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&rsquo;s axial stiffness as other factors are also influencing the location of the zero.
</p>
<p>
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).
