About this document

Piezoelectric Actuator for Hydraulic Valves by Thorin Harig is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document discusses the design of a piezoelectric valve actuator for hydraulic exoskeleton drives, focusing on the need for compact and lightweight components in applications requiring high power density. It presents a systematic approach to designing a piezo-actuator that utilizes a bistable buckling beam mechanism to amplify the low strain of piezo materials, addressing challenges such as displacement and energy efficiency. The paper outlines specifications for the actuator, including hydraulic power,
