title = "Parameter determination for an electromechanical model of a displacement-amplified piezoelectric actuator",
abstract = "The {"}long range displacement{"} piezoelectric actuator (PEA) investigated in this paper comprises pre-stressed piezoceramic lead zirconate titanate (PZT) stacks in a flexure-constrained multi-component frame. This paper proposes a PZT electromechanical model which relates the stacks' electrical and mechanical domains. This paper introduces an identification approach to the determination of the model parameters without disassembling the embedded piezoceramic stacks. The electromechanical couplings of the PZT stacks, which describe the energy transfer between the electrical and mechanical domains, were experimentally identified.",
