Stress Analysis in piezoelectric ceramic material

[alicia]

Hi..
Can anyone provide me with info about the coupling effect of a piezoelectric mat under the effect of electric fields and static force. The stress concentration in the mat(with notches) is to be found using Ansys, utimately.

Thanks!!

Regards,
Alicia

 

there a review article in the most recent volume of J. Materails Science.

hi alicia,

I think you can find/read that title in these books:
****Electronic Ceramics (B.C.H. Steele)
ELSEVIER APPLIED SCIENCE

****Electroceramics ( A.J.Moulson and J.M.Herbert)
Published by Chapma&Hall (London)

these books tells every thing about piezoelectric properties and mechanisms..

I hope its usefull for you..

my ICQ :51000478 if you will find a good web site about piezoelectrics pls write me...ok?
