Three-dimensional exact analysis of piezoelectric laminated plates via a sampling surfaces method

Abstract A paper focuses on the use of the efficient approach to three-dimensional (3D) exact solutions of electroelasticity for piezoelectric laminated plates. This approach is based on the new method of sampling surfaces (SaS) developed recently by the authors. We introduce inside the n th layer I n not equally spaced SaS parallel to the middle surface of the plate and choose displacements of these surfaces as basic plate variables. Such an idea permits the representation of the proposed piezoelectric plate formulation in a very compact form. This fact gives the opportunity to derive the 3D exact solutions of electroelasticity for thick and thin piezoelectric laminated plates with a specified accuracy utilizing a sufficient number of SaS, which are located at interfaces and Chebyshev polynomial nodes.
