  • Abstract
    We studied the weakly nonlinear behaviors of a simply-supported multilayer circular piezoelectric plate-like transformer (MCPPT) operating near resonance, where the MCPPT consists of a multilayer circular piezoelectric compound plate with four piezoelectric layers polarized in different directions. Nonlinear effects of large deformations near resonance are considered; it is shown that on one side of the resonant frequency, the output-input relation becomes nonlinear, and the other side, the output voltage becomes multivalued.
