Abstract

Abstract The mechanical behavior of a disk shaped piezoelectric actuator was studied using modified classical lamination theory (CLT) for circular plate. The modified CLT accounts for piezoelectric coupling terms. CLT is capable of predicting the stress field and out of plane displacement of disk shaped laminated piezoelectric layers under applied electric field. The analysis was applied to different types of piezoelectric actuators.
