Antifouling piezoelectric vibratory system
Acronym:
PIEZOVIB
Funding:
Short Overview:
The PIEZOVIB project, between the CEA, the MAPIEM and the IFREMER, fits into this context. The proposed solution uses the vibration of the measuring surface by the use of piezoelectric actuators, outside the measuring periods. The surfaces will be transparent or not depending on the type of measurement. This project is based on the conclusive experience acquired in this field for three years, between the MAPIEM laboratory of the University of Toulon and the CEA Grenoble. the surfaces may be, in a second step, micro-textured in order to have a combination of approaches acting synergistically. The developed system will be tested in situ, both in Brest and Toulon, to prove the full benefit of our solution.
