Electroelastic Response of a Laminated Composite Plate with Piezoelectric Sensors and Actuators
Publication: Journal of Engineering Mechanics
Volume 132, Issue 8
Abstract
The paper deals with the fully coupled response characteristics of a multilayered composite plate with piezoelectric layers. The response quantities of the plate are coupled by the mechanical field and the electric field. Based on the three-dimensional linear piezoelectricity and the first-order shear deformation theory, the fundamental unknowns, such as the displacements and the electric potential, are assumed to be expandable through the plate thickness coordinate. The governing equations of motion of the plate are presented in terms of the unknown displacement and electrical potential coefficients. When the boundary conditions and electromechanical inputs are specified, the double Fourier series is used to obtain the response of the simply supported multilayered plates. Numerical results for the static and dynamic response of the laminated composite plates with different lamination schemes and having a PIC-151 piezoelectric material layer are obtained. The effects of the plate thinness ratio, plate aspect ratio, lamination scheme, fiber orientations, and piezoelectric coupling on the static and dynamic response are presented.
