Abstract
The state vector equations for space axisymmetric problems of transversely isotropic piezoelectric media are established from the basic equations. Using the Hankel transform, the state vector equations are reduced to a system of ordinary differential equations. An analytical solution of the problems in the Hankel transform space is presented in the form of the product of initial state vector and transfer matrix. The transfer matrices are given for the three distinct eigenvalues. Applications of the solutions are discussed. An analytical solution for the transversely isotropic semi-infinite piezoelectric media subjected to concerted point loads on the surface z=0 is presented in the Hankel transform space. Using transfer matrix and the continuity conditions at the layer interfaces, the general solution formulation of N-layered transversely isotropic piezoelectric media is given. A selected set of numerical solutions is presented for a layered semi-infinite piezoelectric solid.
