The aim of this paper is to seek the solution to the electromechanical field equations for a cracked linear piezoelectric body using an analytical approach which is based on the decomposition theorem of linear algebra. The electroelastic fields around the crack tip are given. The energy release rate is written in terms of those fields intensity factors.

Abstract This paper provides a comprehensive treatment of the electromechanical behaviour of fibre reinforced piezoelectric composites under steady-state dynamic loading. The composites are modelled as two-dimensional media with interacting piezoelectric inhomogeneities. The original problem is decomposed into single inhomogeneity subproblems, which are solved by using Fourier expansions. The solutions of these subproblems are then summed up in a consistent manner to provide a system of linear algebraic equations, from which the dynamic electromechanical field in the composites can be determined. Numerical examples are provided to show the effect of the interaction between piezoelectric fibres, the material mismatch and the loading frequency upon the dynamic local stress field and electrical response of the composites.

An analysis for the prediction of the electromechanical field in composite piezoelectric half-planes with attached surface electrode is presented. The composite half-planes are composed of distinct constituents and may include internal defects in various locations. The solution is carried out in a sufficiently large rectangular region, the boundary conditions of which are obtained from the corresponding solution of a homogeneous piezoelectric half-plane. This is followed by the application of the discrete Fourier transform at the domain of which a boundary-value problem is formulated. The solution of this boundary-value problem, followed by the inversion of the Fourier transform, provides, in conjunction with an iterative procedure, the electromechanical field at any point of the rectangular region. Applications are given for a piezoelectric half-plane with defects in the form of a cavity and of short and semi-infinite cracks as well as of a periodically bilayered composite with a crack in one of its layers.

To improve the internal quantum efficiency of green light-emitting diodes, we present the numerical design and analysis of bandgap-engineered W-shaped quantum well. The numerical results suggest significant improvement in the internal quantum efficiency of the proposed W-LED. The improvement is associated with significantly improved hole confinement due to the localization of indium in the active region, leading to improved radiative recombination rate. In addition, the proposed device shows reduced defect-assisted Shockley-Read-Hall (SRH) recombination rate as well as Auger recombination rate. Moreover, the efficiency rolloff in the proposed device is associated with increased built-in electromechanical field.

This paper studies the dynamic electromechanical response of piezoelectric mirrors driven by piezoelectric lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thick films both numerically and experimentally. The resonant frequency and the mirror tilt angle of piezoelectric mirrors under ac electric fields were analyzed by three-dimensional finite element method. The dynamic electromechanical field concentrations due to electrodes were also simulated and the results were discussed in detail. The mirrors consisted of four partially poled PZT unimorphs. The resonant frequency was then measured, and a comparison was made between the analysis and the experiment. The finite element method is shown to be capable of estimating the electromechanical field concentrations in the PZT films, making it a useful tool for designing future microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) mirrors.
