4 Preface This book contains a comprehensive treatment of piezoelectric materials using linear electroelastic theory, the symplectic model, and various special solution methods. The volume summarizes the current state of practice and presents the most recent research outcomes in piezoelectricity. Our hope in preparing this book is to present a stimulating guide and then to attract interested readers and researchers to a new field that continues to provide fascinating and technologically important challenges. You will benefit from the authors thorough coverage of general principles for each topic, followed by detailed mathematical derivations and worked examples as well as tables and figures in appropriate positions. The study of piezoelectricity was initiated by Jacques Curie and Pierre Curie in They found that certain crystalline materials generate an electric charge proportional to a mechanical stress. Since then new theories and applications of the field have been constantly advanced. These advances have resulted in a great many publications including journal papers and monographs. Although many concepts and theories have been included in earlier monographs, numerous new developments in piezoelectricity over the last two decades have made it increasingly necessary to collect significant information and to present a unified treatment of these useful but scattered results. These results should be made available to professional engineers, research scientists, workers and postgraduate students in applied mechanics and material engineering. The objective of this book is to fill this gap, so that readers can obtain a sound knowledge of the solution methods for piezoelectric materials. This volume details the development of solution methods for piezoelectric composites and is written for researchers, postgraduate students, and professional engineers in the areas of solid mechanics, physical science and engineering, applied mathematics, mechanical engineering, and materials science. Little mathematical knowledge besides the usual calculus is required, although conventional matrixes, vectors, and tensor presentations are used throughout the book. Chapter 1 provides a brief description of piezocomposites and the linear theory of piezoelectric materials in order to establish notation and fundamental concepts for reference in later chapters. Chapter 2 presents various solution methods for piezoelectric composites which can be taken as a common source for subsequent chapters. It includes the potential function method, Lekhnitskii formalism, techniques of Fourier transformation, Trefftz finite element method, integral equation approach, shear-lag model, and symplectic method. Chapter 3 deals with problems of fibrous piezoelectric composites, beginning with a discussion of piezoelectric fiber push-out and pull-out, and ending with a brief description of the

5 vi Preface solution for a piezoelectric composite with an elliptic fiber. Chapter 4 is concerned with applications of Trefftz method to piezoelectric materials. Trefftz finite element method, Trefftz boundary element method, and Trefftz boundary-collocation method are presented. Chapter 5 describes some solutions of piezoelectric problems using a symplectic approach. Chapter 6 presents Saint-Venant decay analysis of piezoelectric materials by way of symplectic formulation and the state space method. Chapter 7 reviews solutions for piezoelectric materials containing penny-shaped cracks. Chapter 8 describes solution methods for functionally graded piezoelectric materials. I am indebted to a number of individuals in academic circles and organizations who have contributed in different, but important, ways to the preparation of this book. In particular, I wish to extend appreciation to my postgraduate students for their assistance in preparing this book. Special thanks go to Ms. Jianbo Liu of Higher Education Press for her commitment to the publication of this book. Finally, we wish to acknowledge the individuals and organizations cited in the book for permission to use their materials. I would be grateful if readers would be so kind as to send reports of any typographical and other errors, as well as their more general comments. Qing-Hua Qin Canberra, Australia May 2012
