A primary objective of this MURI grouping was to help | |
shorten the time constant for new materials and device | |
concepts to be applied in practical Navy Systems. We | |
believe this has now been realized in joint work on the | |
composite cymbal type flextensional arrays for large area | |
projectors, and in the progress made towards a micro- | |
tonpilz array system. Original work on new step and | |
repeat piezoelectric high strain systems continues to | |
make good progress now using commercial motion rectifiers | |
to produce both linear and rotary systems with high | |
torque capability. New composite designs are pushing | |
toward 1 mm diameter motors in the size regimen where | |
there are real difficulties for conventional | |
electromagnetic designs. A new area of activity this year | |
is in piezoelectric transformers where a circular | |
symmetry design in conjunction with controlled | |
inhomogeneous poling is shown to offer capabilities which | |
are of real interest for energy recovery actuator power | |
systems. Basic studies have evolved a new environmental | |
SEM technique for high resolution domain wall studies | |
without changing problems. Work is continuing on reliable | |
measurements of electrostrictive constants in simple | |
solids confirming by both direct and converse methods and | |
permitting the first generalization of trends in these | |
fundamentally important coupling constants. | |
