| Abstract: |
This paper presents a finite element analysis to model and analyze composite laminated beams with distributed piezoelectric actuators attached to the top and bottom surfaces considering nonlinear constitutive equations under a high electric field. The static response is presented for piezoelectric composite laminated beam using higher order electric field nonlinearity to assess the effect of electrostriction and elastostriction coefficient at a high electric field. A finite element approach based on higher-order shear deformation theory is applied for static analysis of composite laminated beams, varying the thickness and orientation of laminates, to verify the nonlinear effect under a high electric field. A good comparison of results is shown with the available results in the literature. The finding of the results highlights the importance of considering elastostriction term along with the electrostriction term in determining the deflection and stresses of the composite laminated beam.
