About this book

Dynamic Fracture of Piezoelectric Materials focuses on the Boundary Integral Equation Method as an efficient computational tool. The presentation of the theoretical basis of piezoelectricity is followed by sections on fundamental solutions and the numerical realization of the boundary value problems. Two major parts of the book are devoted to the solution of problems in homogeneous and inhomogeneous solids. The book includes contributions on coupled electro-mechanical models, computational methods, its validation and the simulation results, which reveal different effects useful for engineering design and practice. The book is self-contained and well-illustrated, and it serves as a graduate-level textbook or as extra reading material for students and researchers.

Reviews

From the book reviews:

“The book is heavily oriented toward applications with technological interest­—piezoelectric materials are, in fact, largely used to construct resonators, sensors, and actuators—and as such it can surely be useful for readers interested in pursuing similar analyses or extending them to more intricate cases than those considered in the various chapters.” (Paolo Maria Mariano, Mathematical Reviews, November, 2014)
