Abstract :
This paper presents accurate electromechanical analysis of piezoelectric beam-type transducers with interlayer slip, based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. The closed solutions of two different kinds of piezoelectric beam-type transducers under external harmonic loads are derived. The effects of the interfacial slip parameter on the responses of the transducers are discussed. Comparisons with other related experimental and theoretical results are also given, and good agreement is found.
