Discussion of fracture paper #44 - Flexo & piezoelectric effects and cracks

research

The Curie brothers, Pierre and Jacques, discovered the piezoelectric effect in 1880. The phenomenon has been exploited in many useful applications, such as for the pickup on the gramophone that registers the sound when it follows the winding groove in the vinyl record surface. It is also used in lighters that ignite a gas when the voltage gap between different locations exceeds the limit to produce a spark. When things are made smaller and smaller, passing mm's, microns down to nano scales, the piezoelectric effect is surpassed by the flexoelectric effect.
