Abstract:The main subject of this paper is the micro-mechanical analysis of a piezoelectric ceramic. In micro-mechanical analyses, it is very important to have knowledge about the real and natural micro-structure of materials. Therefore, the barium titanate powder was prepared using the solid-state technique, and pellets and beams were manufactured by uniaxial and isostatic pressing. The boundary element method (BEM) is used in order to be combined with three different grain boundary formulations for investigation of m… Show more
