Apart from the output-input hysteresis loops, the magnetostrictive actuators also exhibit
asymmetry and saturation, particularly under moderate to large magnitude inputs and at …

The hysteresis nonlinearities of a magnetostrictive actuator were characterized under
different amplitudes of simple and complex harmonic excitations over a wide range of …

Magnetostrictive actuators invariably exhibit hysteresis nonlinearities that tend to become
significant under high rates of inputs, and could cause oscillations and error in the micro …

When uncertain systems are actuated by smart material based actuators, the systems exhibit
hysteresis nonlinearities and corresponding control is becoming a challenging task …

A generalized Prandtl–Ishlinskii model is proposed for characterizing the rate-dependent
hysteresis behavior of smart actuators. A rate-dependent play operator is formulated and …

Piezoelectric, magnetostrictive, and shape memory alloy actuators are gaining importance in
