Abstract
In this paper, the dynamic response of piezoelectric structures under hygrothermal environment is studied by using cell-based smoothed finite element method (CS-FEM). Ignoring the influence of temperature and moisture on the response of elastic matrix, we derive the basic equations of the piezoelectric materials under hygrothermal environment. Then the CS-FEM equations of piezoelectric problem are deduced based on the constitutive equation of the material. The improved Newmark scheme is used to solve the transient response of this problem. Several numerical examples are given to illustrate the advantage of CS-FEM in dealing with piezoelectric materials in hygrothermal environment. Results of this study provides some ideas for the design and manufacture of piezoelectric smart structures in hygrothermal environment.
