Abstract

Devices based on piezoelectric materials have traditionally been modeled in PDE simulation software. These simulations are expensive to create and run. In this paper it is shown that lumped-parameter models of such devices can provide good fidelity with low computational cost. Modelica models of supporting components; along with a system-level model of a linear piezoelectric stepper motor are presented. The simulation results show good agreement with published experimental results. Future research is proposed based on the components and model.
