Piezoelectric materials embedded into plates and shells make the structures being capable of sensing and actuation, usually called smart structures, which are frequently used for shape and vibration control, noise control, health monitoring, and energy harvesting. To give a precise prediction of static and dynamic behavior of smart structures, the linear/nonlinear multi-physics coupled modeling technique is of great importance. The article attempts to present the available research on modeling of piezoelectric integrated plates and shells, including (1) through thickness hypotheses for beams, plates, and shells; (2) geometrically nonlinear theories for plates and shells; (3) electroelastic material linear/nonlinear modeling; (4) multi-physics coupled modeling; and (5) modeling of advanced piezo-fiber composite bonded structures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
