摘要
A theoretical model of a circular flexure-mode piezoelectric bimorph ac- tuator is established. The circular bimorph structure, consisting of two flexible layers of piezoelectric material and a layer of metallic material in the middle, is powered to the flexural deformation. The analytical solutions including the statics solution and the dynamics solution are derived from the 3D equations of the linear theory of piezoelectric- ity. Numerical results are included to show the circular bimorph piezoelectric actuator （CBPA） performance, depending on the physical parameters.
