Abstract: The average thermally induced electroelastic fields and the effective thermal expansion and pyroelectric coefficients of two-phase composite materials are obtained by applying the Mori-Tanaka ...

Abstract: A theoretical approach is proposed to estimate the elastic moduli of three-phase composites consisting of a matrix phase reinforced by two-phase particles. The theoretical predictions are based ...

Abstract: We obtain explicit closed-form solutions for the half-space Green’s functions for a transversely isotropic piezoelectric solid. The boundary of the half-space is taken to be a plane normal to ...

Abstract: Ultrasonic guided waves in a layered elastic plate of rectangular cross section (finite width and thickness) are studied in this paper. A semi-analytical finite element method in which the ...
