Investigations on Piezoactuator-Based Active Vibration Isolation for Tool-Based Micromachining Applications
Abstract: Stacked piezoactuators are suitable actuators for active vibration isolation systems due to their high stiffness and fast response. However, they exhibit hysteresis nonlinearity between applied voltage and the resulting displacement. In this paper, Bouc-Wen model is used to model the hysteresis nonlinearity of stacked piezoactuator. The model parameters are estimated from the experimental voltage-displacement data of a stacked piezoactuator using “Trust-region nonlinear least square method” in MATLAB Simulink. The resulting …

A Study to Assess the Stress and Anger Management by Deep Breathing Exercise and Meditation Among Adolescent Nursing Students at a Selected Nursing School in Delhi
Abstract: Introduction: Stress is a response that can lead to physical, emotional, or psychological strain. It is a frequent occurrence in daily life. Stress acts as the body's natural mechanism for defense against potential threats and dangers. It initiates a release of hormones that ready the body's functions to either confront danger head-on or retreat, commonly known as the fight-or-flight reaction. Anger can be caused by both external and internal events …
