Adaptive inverse modeling of a shape memory alloy wire actuator and tracking control with the model (2009-06-02)It is well known that the Preisach model is useful to approximate the effect of hysteresis behavior in smart materials, such as piezoactuators and Shape Memory Alloy(SMA) wire actuators. For tracking control, many researchers ...
