This paper studies the properties of the Preisach model and the play model, and compare
their similarities. Both are history-dependent hysteresis models that are used to model …

The Krasnoselskii-Pokrovskii (KP) model, as one of the popular operator-based hysteresis
models, is commonly used to describe the hysteresis nonlinearities, especially in the smart …

Micro/Nano mechatronic systems might be defined as systems that include nano-or micro-
scale components. These components can be sensors, actuators, and/or physical structures …

The potential to actuate proportional flow control valves using piezoelectric ceramics or
other smart materials has been investigated for a number of years. Although performance …

The magnetic shape memory alloy (MSMA)-based actuator, as a new type of actuator, has a
great application prospect in the micro-precision positioning field. However, the input-to …

Ferromagnetic shape memory alloys (FSMAs), which are potential candidates for future
technologies (ie, actuators in robots), have been paid much attention for their high work per …

Magnetic shape memory alloys (MSMAs), which are a class of innovative functional
materials, are used as the actuators to be applied widely in high-precision positioning …

Precision positioning stages with large strokes and high positioning accuracy are attractive
for high-performance micro/nano manufacturing. This paper presents the dynamic design …

Magnetic shape memory alloys (MSMA) have significant potential for industrial applications,
