Abstract

A general selective modal transducer (SMT) design methodology recently introduced by the authors for piezolaminated anisotropic plate systems is validated through an experimental test on a cantilevered orthotropic composite piezolaminated plate. Fundamental aspects of the SMT theory are reviewed. The SMT theory is extended to provide the means to predict the modal character of multilayered piezolaminated transducers embedded in an anisotropic plate in which the active subelements are both bidirectional and spatially varying. An experimental procedure is described involving a 10-layered orthotropic plate constructed from four graphite-epoxy layers sand(
