An asymptotic model of a multimaterial with a thin piezoeletric interphase
Michèle Serpilli · Comptes Rendus Mécanique · 2014
We study the electromechanical behavior of a multimaterial constituted by a linear piezoelectric transversely isotropic plate-like body with high rigidity embedded between two generic three-dimensional piezoelectric bodies by means of the asymptotic expansion method. After defining a small real dimensionless parameter ε , which will tend to zero, we characterize the limit model and the associated limit problem. Moreover, we identify the non-classical electromechanical transmission conditions between the two three-dimensional bodies.
