Deflection and stress analysis of piezoelectric laminated composite plate under variable polynomial transverse loading

Among many smart materials, piezoelectric materials have emerged as the most studied ones for practical applications. They owe their success to several factors, including low price, high bandwidth, availability in various formats, and ease of handling implementation. The present study focused on performance laminated composite plate under electromechanical loading conditions by utilizing first-order shear deformation theory with Newton–Raphson residual iteration Gauss integration point Ansys. For first time, effects electrical loading, circuit arrangement, voltage variation, polynomial variable transverse are over (PCP). aspect ratio, thickness boundary conditions, ply orientations, nature variation presented. also utilized open close arrangements sensors actuators gauge PCP form static bending analysis. maximum OC (open circuit) output is generated N 4 type compared i ( = 1–4); other hand, minimum 5 . combined effect external load presented will be useful analyzing deflection it can further implemented reducing or vibration. It noted that, a higher laminate (t/h) observed. In addition, rate generation observed highest condition lowest load.
