Abstract

The development of motor models, adequate for motor design and optimization is still behind the technological state of the art. The reason for this lies in the fact that a couple of years ago the main emphasis regarding ultrasonic motors was on finding new principles or prototypes while today this has shifted towards optimization of known working concepts and motors. A systematic motor optimization demands, among at her things, a detailed dynamical understanding of the motor which not too often exists for ultrasonic motors in general.

The present study deals with modeling a wobbling disk piezoelectric motor. For the model the analytic steady state solution is derived and stability of the solution is investigated. The model and the analytic steady state solution yield a detailed insight in essential dynamical phenomena by which the motor is driven. The model framework may be a guideline providing understanding in the working principle, dynamics, weighting of the parameters with respect to reliable, stable operation and optimization of such motors.
