  • Method and transducers for dynamic testing of structures and materials
    Patent number: 7332849
    Abstract: A transducer for dynamic testing of specimen is disclosed. The transducer comprises at least two equally-spaced actuators, and a supporting block for supporting the at least two equally-spaced actuators and for mounting the transducer to the specimen. Each of the at least two equally-spaced actuators is an electrically powerable for providing to the specimen: a force or a moment. The actuators may be bimorphs and the transducer may be able to operate as an actuator, a sensor, and simultaneously as an actuator and a sensor. This may be for the transducer being able to operate as a sensor, for measurement of at least one selected from the group consisting of: an excitation force exerted on the specimen, an excitation moment exerts on the specimen, a resultant translational velocity of the specimen at an excitation point, and a rotational velocity of the specimen at the excitation point.
