Abstract

A new technique is described, which allows the assessment of elastic and inelastic regions around a macroscopic defect in ferroelectric-ferroelastic ceramics. The accuracy and robustness of the method are demonstrated on a PZT plate with a centered hole subjected to uni-axial compressive stresses. From the electrical potential distribution on the sample surface, the mechanical response of the material is obtained at different load levels.
