This paper presents a new passivity property for distributed piezoelectric devices with integrable port-variables. We present two new control methodologies by exploiting the integrability property of the port-variables. The derived controllers have a Proportional-Integral (PI) like structure. Finally, we present the simulation results and in-depth analysis on the tuning gains explaining their transient and steady-state behaviors.
