Applications of the model in analyzing buckling of two circular piezoelectric plates, one single-layered and the other double-layered, are included. The analysis indicates that the piezoelectric coupling has a strengthening effect against buckling.展开更多

The equations are linearized for small, dynamic ?elds superposed on ?nite, static biased ?elds. These linear equations are used to study plane waves propagating in an electroelastic body under various mechanical and/or electric biased ?elds. It is shown that the speed of the acoustic waves exhibits a strong dependence upon those material parameters in the nonlinear constitu- tive relations. Experimental determination of these material parameters using this dependence is discussed.展开更多

Both free and electrically forced vibrations are studied. Exact solutions are obtained from the equations of linear piezoelectricity. Resonant frequencies and the impedance of the transducer are calculated from the solution. Results show that the resonant frequencies are sensitive to the dimensions of the air gaps when the gaps are thin. The impedance depends strongly on the air gaps.展开更多
