A Novel Method for Co-Simulating 1-3 Piezocomposite Performance

Article Preview

Abstract:

The paper provides a novel method for co-simulating 1-3 piezocomposites performance. Both equivalent parameter model (EPM) and finite element mode (FEM) are utilized in the method, and a co-simulation software is developed based on the method. The performance of 1-3 piezocomposite can be conveniently calculated by the software. Therefore the method and software involved in this research can be applied to the design of 1-3 piezocomposite.
