The effect of uniaxial stress on the electro-mechanical response of 8/65/35 PLZT

Christopher S. Lynch
- 01 Oct 1996 - 
- Vol. 44, Iss: 10, pp 4137-4148
TLDR
In this article, the limitations of linear constitutive modeling and limitations of this composition of PLZT as an actuator material are examined, and the "yield" or ferroelastic switching stress is suggested as a good criteria for assessing the capability of actuator ceramics.

Perspective on the Development of Lead-free Piezoceramics

TL;DR: In this paper, general guidelines for the development of lead-free piezoelectric ceramics are presented, ranging from atom to phase diagram, and the current development stage in lead free piezoceramics is then critically assessed.

Decoding the Fingerprint of Ferroelectric Loops: Comprehension of the Material Properties and Structures

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact factors on the hysteresis loops are discussed based on recent developments in ferroelectric and related materials, including the effect of materials (grain size and grain boundary, phase and phase boundary, doping, anisotropy, thickness), aging, and measurement conditions (applied field amplitude, fatigue, frequency, temperature, stress), which can affect the hysteretic behaviors of the ferroelectrics.

Progress in high-strain perovskite piezoelectric ceramics

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the latest developments of the various types of perovskite piezoelectric ceramic systems is presented in this article, with special attention given to three promising families of lead-free perovsite ferroelectrics: the barium titanate, alkaline niobate and bismuth pervskites.

A constitutive model for ferroelectric polycrystals

TL;DR: In this paper, a constitutive model for the non-linear switching of ferroelectric polycrystals under a combination of mechanical stress and electric field is developed for nonlinear switching, where the switching event, which converts one crystal variant into another, gives rise to a progressive change in remanent strain and polarisation.

The mathematical theory of plasticity

Rodney Hill
TL;DR: In this paper, the solution of two-dimensional non-steady motion problems in two dimensions is studied. But the solution is not a solution to the problem in three dimensions.

The effect of field‐dependent heat capacity on the characteristics of the ferromagnetic Ericsson refrigeration cycle

TL;DR: In this paper, the characteristics of a magnetic Ericsson refrigeration cycle are investigated on the basis of the thermodynamic properties of the ferromagnetic material and the effect of field-dependent heat capacity on regeneration is discussed.
