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 …

This paper proposes an approach to deal with the control of a class of dynamical systems
affected by hysteresis, which is particularly common in applications of smart materials to …

The need for mechatronic devices that are lightweight, less cumbersome and able to
produce small, quick and precise movements or forces is ever increasing in many fields of …

This paper presents an actuator based on magnetic shape memory alloys (MSMAs) suitable
for precise positioning in a wide range (up to 1 mm). The actuator is based on the spring …

In this paper, output feedback integral control of piezoelectric actuators is considered with
respect to the hysteresis effect. The linear dynamics of the piezoelectric actuator is modeled …

In this paper, we present conditions for the stabilization and regulation of the tracking error
for an n-dimensional minimum-phase system preceded by a Prandtl–Ishlinskii hysteresis …

Hysteresis exists in magnetic shape memory alloy (MSMA) actuators, which restricts MSMA
actuators' application. To describe hysteresis of the MSMA actuators, a hysteresis model …

This paper discusses in details a control design approach for hysteretic systems with
dynamics. The framework is quite general to embrace several unconventional actuators. In …

The hysteresis nonlinearity of the magnetically controlled shape memory alloy (MSMA)
actuator exerts a great influence on the positioning accuracy. To effectively alleviate the …

Nonlinear system identification and control is a very vast field. In order to make a brief review
manageable the topic has been constrained to focus on systems with hysteresis. The model …
