Abstract

Piezoelectric materials are used as layers or fibers that are embedded within or bonded to the surfaces of a structure. The present formulation allows us to model composite structures behavior in all convenient manner for optimal design. In this paper, the various optimization criteria used for optimal placement of piezoelectric actuators on laminated structures are discussed.
