Piezoelectric materials, due to their electromechanical coupling properties, are widely used as actuators and sensors in intelligent structures control vibrations bends of multilayer sheets with piezoelectric layers. In this paper, the response free a composite shell new Generalized Differential Quadrature Method (GDQM) for different boundary conditions is investigated. The governing equations ...

using piezoelectric patches the stress concentration around a hole on a plate under tension is reduced and controlled. to attain the reduction in stress two placements for piezoelectric patches is investigated. the first location is top/bottom of the hole with compression induced strain and the second is left/right of the hole with tension induced strains to control the stress flow. the result ...

In this article, using generalized differential quadrature (GDQ) methods, free vibration of a thin annular plate coupled with two open circuit piezoelectric layers, is numerically studied based on the classical plate theory. The governing differential equations with respective boundary conditions are derived and transformed into a set of algebraic equations by implementing the GDQ rule, then so...

Implantable nanogenerators are rapidly advanced recently as a promising concept for harvesting biomechanical energy in vivo. This review article presents an overview of the most current progress of implantable piezoelectric nanogenerator (PENG) and triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) with a focus on materials selection, engineering, and assembly. The evolution of the PENG materials is discussed ...

in this paper, the solution of a moving volterra-type screw dislocation in an orthotropic layer, bonded between two piezoelectric layers is obtained using complex fourier transform. the dislocation solution is then employed as strain nuclei to derive singular integral equations for a medium weakened by multiple moving cracks. these equations, which are classified as, cauchy singular equations, ...

The purpose of this work is to control the vibration of the plate with the help of finite element method. Using augmented equations, a finite element model of a two-dimensional cantilever plate instrumented with a piezoelectric patches sensor-actuator pair is derived. The contribution of piezoelectric sensor and actuator layers on the mass and stiffness of the plate is considered. As mesh size ...

This paper studies dynamic stability of homogeneous beams with piezoelectric layers subjected to periodic axial compressive load that is simply supported at both ends lies on a continuous elastic foundation. The displacement field of beam is assumed based on Bernoulli-Euler beam theory. Applying the Hamilton's principle, the governing dynamic equation is established. The influences of applied v...
