Bias Magnetic Field of Stack Giant Magnetostrictive Actuator: Design, Analysis, and Optimization

Many novel applications using giant magnetostrictive actuators (GMA) require their actuators output bidirectional strokes to be large enough to drive the load. In these cases, the sophisticated method to form such a sufficient bias field with minimum power and bulk consumption should be considered i...
