Abstract

A theoretical study on piezoelectric coated nano-inclusion composites with interface effect under antiplane shear is reported. Based on the theory of Gurtin–Murdoch surface/interface theory and the generalized self-consistent method, a closed-form solution of the effective electroelastic moduli are obtained. The numerical results reveal the size dependence of the effective electroelastic moduli when the size of the coating and inclusion are on the order of nanometer. The effects of the coating thickness and inclusion radius on the effective electroelastic moduli of the composites are discussed.
