hi everyone,
can anybody tell me how to model a biomorph beam in ansys? it consists of two layers top piezo, bottom non piezo. i need to apply voltage on piezo layer to find nodal deflection.i took plane 183(isotropic) for non piezo layer and plane 223 for piezo layer. i dont know what may be problem.but i cannot find deflections. i glued piezo layer with non piezo layer.is there any alternative element combination?
