압전션트감쇠란 압전재료를 구조물에 부착시키고 간단한 션트회로를 연결시켜 구조물의 진동에너지를 압전재료에서 전기적 에너지로 변환시킨 후 연결된 회로에서 전기에너지를 열 에너지로 소산시킴으로서 구조물의 진동 및 소음을 저감시키는 방법이다. 이 방법은 공진주파수에서 간단한 회로를 사용하여 효과적으로 진동 및 소음을 저감시킬 수 있으며 구조가 간단하고 가격이 저렴하므로 소음진동의 여러분야에 응용이 가능하다. 본 글에서는 압전션트 감쇠의 원리와 단일모드, 다중모드의 감쇠 기법의 이론을 소개한다.(중략)

The possibility of a broadband noise reduction of piezoelectric smart panels is experimentally studied. Piezoelectric smart panel is basically a plate structure on which piezoelectric patch with shunt circuits is mounted and sound absorbing material is bonded on the surface of the structure. Sound absorbing materials can absorb the sound transmitted at mid frequency region effectively while the use of piezoelectric shunt damping can reduce the transmission at resonance frequencies of the panel structure. To be able to tune the piezoelectric shunt circuit, the measured electrical impedance model is adopted. Resonant shunt circuit composed of register and inductor in stories is considered and the circuit parameters are determined based on maximizing the dissipated energy through the circuit. The transmitted noise reduction performance of smart panels is investigated using an acoustic tunnel. The tunnel is a square crosses sectional tunnel and a loud speaker is mounted at one side of the tunnel as a sound source. Panels are mounted in the middle of the tunnel and the transmitted sound pressure across the panels is measured. Noise reduction performance of a double smart panel possessing absorbing material and air gap shows a good result at mid frequency region except the first resonance frequency. By enabling the piezoelectric shunt damping, noise reduction is achieved at the resonance frequency as well. Piezoelectric smart panels incorporating passive method and piezoelectric shunt damping are a promising technology for noise reduction in a broadband frequency.

The high-frequency electro-mechanical signatures, which are excited and received by piezoelectric wafers mounted on a beam, are sensitive to incipient defect in a beam. Predicting the sensing range of the piezoelectric wafers is needed to effectively conduct damage assessment of a beam through utilizing their advantage. Damping of a beam plays the most important role in determining the sensing range among other features. This paper has proposed a scheme for estimating high-frequency damping of a beam through electro-mechanical signatures of piezoelectric wafers mounted on the beam. Considering damping effect while resonance of a beam evolves, wave perspective is adopted to formulate the electro-mechanical signatures of piezoelectric wafers. The damping of a beam is estimated through the least squares method minimizing the difference between the calculated and the measured damping ratio function values which are obtained from formulated and measured electro-mechanical signatures, respectively. The validity of the proposed scheme has been demonstrated through numerical and experimental examples using an aluminum beam with collocated piezoelectric wafers.

The possibility of a transmission noise reduction of piezoelectric smart panels using piezoelectric shunt damping is experimentally studied. Piezoelectric smart panel is basically a plate structure on which piezoelectric patch with shunt circuits is mounted and sound absorbing materials are bonded on the surface of the structure. Sound absorbing materials can absorb the sound transmitted at mid frequency region effectively while the use of piezoelectric shunt damping can reduce the transmission at resonance frequencies of the panel structure. To be able to reduce the sound transmission at low panel resonances, piezoelectric damping using the measured electrical impedance model is adopted. Resonant shunt circuit for piezoelectric shunt damping is composed of register and inductor in series, and they are determined by maximizing the dissipated energy throughout the circuit. The transmitted noise reduction performance of smart panels is investigated using an acoustic tunnel. The tunnel is a tube with square crosses section and a loud-speaker is mounted at one side of the tube as a sound source. Panels are mounted in the middle of the tunnel and the transmitted sound pressure across panels is measured. Noise reduction performance of a smart panels possessing absorbing material and/or air gap shows a good result at mid frequency region but little effect in the resonance frequency. By enabling the piezoelectric shunt damping, noise reduction of 10dB, 8dB is achieved at the resonance frequencise as well. Piezoelectric smart panels incorporating passive method and piezoelectric shunt damping are a promising technology for noise reduction in a broadband frequency.

The possibility of a noise reduction of piezoelectric single Panels is experimentally studied. Piezoelectric single panel is basically a plate structure on which piezoelectric patch with shunt circuit is mounted. The use of piezoelectric shunt damping can reduce the transmission at resonance frequencies of the panel structure. Piezo-damping is implemented by using a newly proposed tuning method. This method is based on electrical impedance model and maximizing the dissipated energy at the shunt circuit. By measuring the electrical impedance at the piezoelectric patch bonded on a structure, an equivalent electrical model is constructed near the system resonance frequency. Resonant shunt circuit for piezoelectric shunt damping is composed of register and inductor in series, and they are determined by maximizing the dissipated energy throughout the circuit. The transmitted noise reduction performance of single Panel is tested on an acoustic tunnel. The tunnel is a tube with a square cross section and a loud speaker is mounted at one side of the tube as a sound source. Panels are mounted in the middle of the tunnel and the transmitted sound pressure across Panels is measured. By enabling the piezoelectric shunt damping noise reduction is achieved at the resonance frequencies as well. Piezoelectric single panel with piezoelectric shunt damping is a promising technology for noise reduction in a broadband frequency.

We suggest a method to measure and correct bending deformation in piezoelectric ceramics displacement. The angle and direction of the bending deformation are measured by monitoring the position of a laser beam reflected on a mirror which is attached to the piezoelectric ceramics with the uncertainty of the angle measurement of $0.36\mu$rad. We divided the electrode of a piezoelectric ceramic into 3 parts and connected 3 capacitors to each electrode in order to apply different voltage to each electrode with one voltage supplier. The deformation was corrected by adjusting the capacitance of each capacitor and was reduced to 6.3%, comparing to the uncorrected case. By using this corrected piezoelectric ceramic to modulate the length of the ringdown cavity, the fluctuation of the decay time caused by the change in optic axis of the cavity was removed.emoved.

Recently, a new class of single-crystal piezoelectric materials such as lead metanibobate doped with lead titanate (PMN-PT) has been synthesized and were found to further enhance the electro-mechanical coupling factor compared to piezo-ceramic materials. This paper describes fabrication and evaluation of PMN-PT single crystal ultrasonic transducers for contact measurement of stainless steel that is one of the highly attenuative materials. The design conditions for ultrasonic transducer such as front matching layer between test materials and piezo-material and backing materials were investigated based on the simulation results by KLM model. The PMN-PT single crystal ultrasonic transducers with centre frequencies at 1 and 2.25 MHz were fabricated and their performances were evaluated.

The piezoelectric coupling in piezoelectric vibration energy harvesters with load resistance induces electrical damping as well as increase in the system stiffness. Starting from analytically deriving the explicit relations through governing equations in the frequency domain, this work identifies the characteristics of the electrically induced damping mechanism and shows that the electrically induced damping serves as a structural hysteretic damping on condition that a piezoelectric vibration energy harvester is excited at its short-circuit resonant frequency and its load resistor is optimally impedance- matched at the same time. Finally, it is analytically verified that the equivalence of a mechanical and an electrically induced damping ratio is required for the maximum power generation at a load resistor, which was claimed in some literature.
