Abstract

The work develops a generalized approach to the study of thickness (radial) vibrations arising in the piezoceramic plates, cylinders, spheres under electrical loads. The state of the problem and the main approaches, used in the problems of studying the oscillations of electroelastic bodies, are described. The use of multilayer elements with electroded interface surfaces and variable direction of polarization of the layers increases the conversion efficiency of electrical energy into mechanical energy, so multilayer piezoceramic plates, cylinders, spheres with changing polarization directions with electroded interfaces are considered. Because of piezoelectric elements are often embedded in the housing and supplemented with matching layers to protect against mechanical damage, it is necessary to study their effect on the oscillations of the element. The proposed approach makes it possible to study the vibrations of plane, cylindrical and spherical bodies with layers made of various electroelastic and elastic materials. Numerical implementation is carried out using finite differences.

Nonstationary oscillations of PZT-4 ceramic elements at zero initial conditions are investigated. Oscillations of multilayer plates, cylinders and spheres with and without an external elastic or viscoelastic reinforcing layer under impulse and harmonic unsteady loads are investigated and compared. There are found own frequencies for 5-layer bodies of different geometry with and without an external layer. The first natural frequency for cylinder and sphere corresponds to the radial mode of oscillations, while the second natural frequency for cylinders and spheres and the first for flat bodies are almost equal and correspond to thickness mode. The transient processes in the elements under impulse loads and the influence of the outer elastic layer (housing or matching layer) are studied, taking into account the Rayleigh attenuation. It is established that for a flat layer the outer layer increases the amplitude and the period of free vibrations after removing the load, and for cylinders and spheres it decreases. The presence of an elastic layer enhances the third and dampens the fourth natural frequency of the transducer, thereby expanding the frequency range of its operation.
