Abstract: Squeeze-Film Levitation of a small object placed on a vibrating plate is investigated for 14 plate designs using simulation. Each plate is excited by an arrangement of four piezoelectric actuators driven by an ac voltage with dc offset. Physical experiments show plate mode shapes and dynamic deformation, plus disk levitation for one of the designs.
