Collocated Tunable Wavenumber Sensor/Actuators for Smart Structures

Abstract

The third actuator module is currently in burnout. The volume fraction of binder/plasticiser in the tape was reduced from 43% to 41% and the tape still laminated well. Decreasing the binder content decreases the chance of flaws appearing during burnout. The burnout schedule has also been extended. It is felt that these modifications and planned changes in the sintering schedule this actuator module should be acceptable.
