Analysis Of Piezoelectric Devices

Download or read book Analysis Of Piezoelectric Devices written by Jiashi Yang and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2006-09-20 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the most systematic, comprehensive and up-to-date book on the theoretical analysis of piezoelectric devices. It is a natural continuation of the author's two previous books: “An Introduction to the Theory of Piezoelectricity” (Springer, 2005) and “The Mechanics of Piezoelectric Structures” (World Scientific, 2006). Based on the linear, nonlinear, three-dimensional and lower-dimensional structural theories of electromechanical materials, theoretical results are presented for devices such as piezoelectric resonators, acoustic wave sensors, and piezoelectric transducers. The book reflects the contribution to the field from Mindlin's school of applied mechanics researchers since the 1950s.
