Piezoelectricity above the Curie temperature? Combining flexoelectricity and functional grading to enable high-temperature elect

Submitted by rmbarki on

Most technologically relevant ferroelectrics typically lose piezoelectricity above the Curie temperature. This limits their use to relatively low temperatures. In this Letter, exploiting a combination of flexoelectricity and simple functional grading, we propose a strategy for high-temperature electromechanical coupling in a standard thin film configuration.

Shear lock free Timoshenko finite element for thin to thick beam

 In this research work, simple, efficient,highly accurate and shear_lock free finite elements based on the Timoshenko beam theory have been developed (see details for numerical results).

Crack Propagation by XFEM

Submitted by anthony_wong on

Hai everyone.

Good day, i'm a new to XFEM who currently doing research in electronic field. I'm thinking about since the crack can be propagated without a crack tip by strain loading, how about the crack propagation by using thermal loading? I didn't see any example of this kind of problem, so can anyone tell me is that possible to do such simulation? Your suggestion is important for me and will be highly appreciated.  

Thanks in advance.
