What is Piezoelectric Material?
• Piezoelectric Material is one that
possesses the property of converting
mechanical energy into electrical energy
and vice versa.

Piezoelectric Sensor
• When mechanical stresses are applied on
the surface, electric charges are
generated (sensor, direct effect).
• If those charges are collected on a
conductor that is connected to a circuit,
current is generated

Mohammad Tawfik

WikiCourses#

Piezoelectric Actuator
• When electric potential (voltage) is applied
to the surface of the piezoelectric material,
mechanical strain is generated (actuator).
• If the piezoelectric material is bonded to a
surface of a structure, it forces the
structure to move with it.

Viscoelastic analogy
• The model of the shunted piezoelectric
patches, in many researches, is reduced
to an equivalent of a viscoelastic patch.
• But Piezoelectric patches are elements
that respond to the total strain rather than
the local strain!

Constitutive Relations
• The piezoelectric
effect appears in the
stress strain relations
of the piezoelectric
material in the form of
an extra electric term
• Similarly, the
mechanical effect
appears in the electric
relations

Constitutive Relations
•
•
•
•

‘S’ (capital s) is the strain
‘T’ is the stress (N/m2)
‘E’ is the electric field (Volt/m)
‘s’ (small s) is the compliance; 1/stiffness
(m2/N)
• ‘D’ is the electric displacement, charge per
unit area (Coulomb/m)
• ¿ Electric permittivity (Farade/m)
Mohammad Tawfik

WikiCourses#

The Electromechanical Coupling
• d31 is called the electromechanical
coupling factor (m/Volt)

Mohammad Tawfik

WikiCourses#

Manipulating the Equations
• The electric displacement is
the charge per unit area:
• The rate of change of the
charge is the current:
• The electric field is the
electric potential per unit

The electromechanical coupling
factor
• Introducing the factor ‘k’:

(

S =s 11 1−k 31

)T 1

• ‘k’ is called the electromechanical coupling
factor (coefficient)
• ‘k’ presents the ratio between the mechanical
energy and the electrical energy stored in the
piezoelectric material.
• For the k13, the best conditions will give a value
of 0.4
Mohammad Tawfik

Different Conditions
• With open circuit conditions, the stiffness
of the piezoelectric material appears to be
higher (less compliance)

(

S =s 11 1−k 31

) T 1 == s

• While for short circuit conditions, the
stiffness appears to be lower (more

Different Conditions
• Similar results could be obtained for the
electric properties; electric properties are
affected by the mechanical boundary
conditions.
