A concise review of the inherent properties ofpolymers, this volume discusses how their end-use properties can be influenced through changesin the molecular architecture or incorporation ofvarious fillers and additives. The authors describethe mechanical, electrical, optical, and thermalproperties of polymers, providing theoretical der-ivations where necessary as well as explanationson molecular and structural features. To identifythe principles involved, the book furnishes thebases of many standard test methods accordingto ASTM and BS 2782 specifications.

Smart Materials
PiezoelectricActuatorsControl Applicationsof Smart MaterialsSeung-Bok ChoiInha University, Incheon, SouthKorea
Young-Min HanAjou Motor College, Chungnam,South Korea
This book focuses on control applications thatuse piezoelectric actuators and sensors. Theyprovide practical examples of engineering appli-cations, such as flexible structures, flexible robot-ic manipulators, fine motion control, hydrauliccontrol, and shunt damping. For each applica-tion, the consecutive process is presented, suchas actuator design system modeling, analysis,control strategy formulation, experimental set-up, and control performance. • Describes the piezoelectric effect and general requirements to achieve successfulpiezoelectric devices
• Discusses control methodologies for con-trolling the system featuring piezoelectricactuators
• Covers active vibration control of flexiblestructures using piezoelectric actuators
• Presents two vibration control cases usingdifferent active mounts associated withpiezoelectric actuators
• Includes information on effective control of various flexible robotic manipulators featuring piezoelectric actuators in theiroperating conditions
• Provides examples of applications of finemotion control systems and hydraulic control systems
• Introduces piezoelectric shunt technologyand its application to vibration control ofinformation storage devices
Selected Contents:
Introduction. Control Strategies. Vibration Controlof Flexible Structure. Vibration Control Using ActiveMount. Control of Flexible Robotic Manipulators.Application to Fine Motion Control System.Application to Hydraulic Control System.Piezoelectric Shunt Technology. Index.
