A method has been developed for the solution of the resistivity and IP modeling problem for one or more two‐dimensional inhomogeneities buried in a space for which the Dirichlet Green’s function is known. The boundary‐value problem reduces to a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind which is parametrically a function of a spatial wavenumber. Using the method of moments, the integral equation is solved for a number of values of the wavenumber. An inverse Fourier transform is then performed in order to obtain the electric potential at any point of interest. The method agrees well with both experimental results and other numerical techniques.

This paper presents a non-linear model for laminated piezoelectric plates with inter-laminar mechanical and electrical damage. The model is based on the general six-degrees-of-freedom plate theory, and the discontinuity of displacement and electric potential on the interfaces are depicted by three shape functions. By using the variation principle, the three-dimensional non-linear equilibrium differential equations of simply supported laminated piezoelectric plates with interfacial damage are derived. Then, an analytical solution is presented by using the finite difference method. In numerical examples, the effects of different damage values, load models, and electric boundary conditions on the inter-laminar stress and electric potential profile of a laminated piezoelectric plate with interfacial imperfections are investigated.
