This paper presents a novel piezoelectric actuator containing double pushers. By using finite element analysis software, this study simulated the vibration mode and amplitude of piezoelectric actuators. The Taguchi method was used to design the parameters of piezoelectric actuators including length, width, height, and electrodes setting. This paper also presents a discussion regarding the influence that the design parameters had on the actuator amplitudes. Based on optimal design parameters, a novel piezoelectric actuator containing double pushers is produced and some thrust tests are also carried out. From the experiment results, the piezoelectric actuator containing double pushers can provide a greater thrust force than that of traditional actuators containing a single pusher as the preload is greater. Comparing with the traditional actuators, the thrust force of new actuator can be increased by 48% with the double preload.

According to uncertainty of the design parameters for large span truss of installing wave-maker, in order to avoid the waste of materials,the truss is analyzed based on the finite element analysis software ANSYS to find out its weaknesses and various parts of the deformation. On the premise of ensuring the intensity and stiffness, the weight of the truss is reduced by adjusting its sizes and selecting different profiles, so as to achieve the optimization of the truss of installing wave-maker.

The parameters of the On-off shift solenoid valve are analyzed by finite element analysis software Ansoft and orthogonal experiment design. What’s more, the design parameters of the on-off shift solenoid valve can be optimized by analysis of the data of the orthogonal table. The result shows that the voltage influences the electromagnetic force the most, the air gap comes second and the number of turns is the minimum. We find that the force increases with the growth of voltage and the number of turns, but it is opposite to the air gap.

There is increasing demand for developing smart structures in various electronic and electromechanical systems during past two decades. The modeling analyzing and manufacturing of these small-scale components remained always a challenging job. Finite element capability available in commercial software package ANSYS makes it convenient to perform modeling and analyzing of these smart structures. In this study a 3-D finite element analysis for cantilever plate structure excited by patches of piezoelectric actuator is presented. To investigate the influence of actuator location and configuration of piezoelectric actuators attached to the plate structure in order to identify the optimal configuration of the actuators for selective excitation of the mode shapes of the cantilever plate structure. The finite element modeling based on ANSYS package using modal analysis and harmonic analysis is used in this study for cantilever plate structure excited by patch type of piezoelectric actuators of PZT-5A at different locations of same geometrical parameters on the cantilever beam. The results clearly indicate optimal locations and configuration of the piezoelectric actuator patches for achieving the excitation of plate modes. Consequently, the results indicate that effective active damping of structural vibration of the cantilever plate can be achieved by proper positioning of the piezoelectric actuator patches.

Took a type of ceramics for daily use vertical type high pressure grouting machine as the object of study, study the stress and strain of its upper and lower mould plates. Established their 3D model by CAD software Pro-E, and then import them into finite element analysis software to analysis the value and distribution of the stress and strain. The analysis results can provide some reference for design, and have some engineering and practical value.
