piezoelectric composite plate analysis using ansys
(OP)
hi everyone,
please help me in finding the displacements due to the application of voltage on piezo layer.
the lay up consists of two piezo layers- one at top and the other at bottom.in between graphite/epoxy layer.
which element should i consider in ansys. can anyone guide me step by step procedure as iam new to it.

thanks for ur valuable suggestion. i tried solid 5 for piezoelectric layer and solid 45 for graphite/epoxy layer. iam not getting the exact results which i want. what i made is as follows:
1.given preferences-structural,electric
2.added elements solid5 and solid45
3. given material properties for both elements,
4.in section i considered shell and gave three layers,mat no, thickness, orientations
5. in modelling i created the required volumes.
6.then i glued the three volumes.
7 meshed total volume.
8. applied constraints and applied electrical load of 100 volts on top piezo layer
but iam getting a deflection value of around 0.08e-18 please have a look at the attachment and suggest me whether my approch is right or not.
