Abstract

The aim of the presented paper is the more detailed investigation and improvement of pre-stressing technology for the piezoelectrical transducer (PET) protection from degradation at action of extreme overload and longtime variable load in operation. Earlier developed 1D model of embedded PET is verified by the finite element analysis. Using this model, the parametrical assessment of stress state and strength of conventional transducer is done. It is shown that there is specific class of PET for which satisfying solution cannot always be obtained by optimization of parameters of the conventional piezoelectrical transducer (CPET). Therefore, further analysis is focused on the stress state and strength of the pre-stressed piezoelectrical transducer (PPET) it comparison with CPET. The electromechanical impedance (EMI) and its integral indicis are used for assessment of PET operability. Numerical simulation of EMI response to possible damages of PET and the outcome of static and fatigue tests are shown the significantly higher resistance of PPET against operational degradation in comparison with CPET.
