Estimating the term…
Membrane device comprising a support (4), a membrane suspended on the support (4), a first actuator (6) in contact with the membrane designed to apply a force on the membrane, a second actuator (10) in contact with the membrane designed to apply a force on the membrane, means of determining the position of the membrane relative to the support and control means of the first (6) and second (10) actuators, said control means applying a deformation signal to one of the first (6) and second (10) actuators to deform the membrane and applying a control signal to the other of the first (6) and second (10) actuators to control displacement of the membrane, application of the control signal being determined by the membrane position.

A membrane device comprising a support, a membrane suspended on the support, a first actuator in contact with the membrane designed to apply a force on the membrane, a second actuator in contact with the membrane designed to apply a force on the membrane, a position sensor for determining the position of the membrane relative to the support and a controller for controlling the first and second actuators, said controller applying a deformation signal to one of the first and second actuators to displace the membrane and applying a control signal to the other of the first and second actuators to control displacement of the membrane, application of the control signal being determined at least by the position of the membrane.
