Abstract
Magnetic shape memory alloy-based actuator (MSMA-BA) has the capability to generate the micro–nano-scale precision positioning, which has unparalleled virtue in contrast with the traditional motion driving mechanism. Nevertheless, the output displacement of the MSMA-BA exhibits complex hysteresis nonlinearity, which hinders its utility in the high-precision positioning field. In this article, an online Volterra series model based on wavelet neural network (VSM-WNN) is proposed to describe the rate-dependent hysteresis of the MSMA-BA. The kernel function of the VSM is extracted with a WNN, in which the feasibility of this extraction is proved in theory via Taylor expansion of the wavelet function. Finally, the validity of the proposed model is confirmed by means of experiments. Experimental results indicate that the VSM-WNN has a remarkable performance in describing the traits of hysteresis behavior of the MSMA-BA.
