Introduction
Piezoelectricity
• Piezoelectricity is ability of certain material to generate
electricity when subjected to mechanical stress.

where vf and vm are the volume fractions of fibre and matrix respecti-
-vely.
• Axial equilibrium of composite requires that stresses in the axial
direction can be written using the rule of mixture as
….(3)
• Others stresses in the composites can be written as
. .........(4)
….(5)
• Equations 1-5 after combining with the constitutive equations
of the fibres and matrix give effective property for the
composite.
• The effective electromechanical coefficients for the composite
thus obtained are
