TL;DR: In this paper , a unified model for studying the dynamical flexoelectricity by including effects of the micro-inertia, dynamical polarization, and the dynamic flexocoupling between displacement and polarization upon the mechanical and electrical states of the dielectric material was proposed.
Abstract: The present work proposes a unified model for studying the dynamical flexoelectricity by including effects of the micro-inertia, the dynamical polarization, and the dynamical flexocoupling between displacement and polarization upon the mechanical and electrical states of the dielectric material. The mathematical description is presented in the framework of strain gradient elasticity. Using the variational technique for internal energies and external forces, the governing equations are derived with their concomitant boundary conditions for homogeneous anisotropic flexoelectric materials. The focus is on the study of the effects of such dynamical size-dependent and dynamical flexocoupling tensor on the class of centrosymmetric isotropic dielectric materials, which referred to as the flexoelectric effect, by means of the integral transform technique. A one-dimensional application is presented for a semi-infinite flexoelectric material. The solution is obtained using the integral transform method, precisely, the Laplace transform. The strontium titanate (STO) is chosen for the numerical simulation. It is emphasized that the size-dependent factor diminishes the dynamical wave feature of the response variables. Otherwise, the flexocoupling parameter is found to play a key role in polarization production inside the dielectric medium.

TL;DR: In this paper, an equilibrium relation is developed to govern the behavior of the couples, which constrained the couple stress tensor to be symmetric, and the symmetric curvature tensor became the only properly conjugated high order strain measures in the theory to have a real contribution to the total strain energy of the system.

TL;DR: Flexoelectricity is a universal effect allowed by symmetry in all materials as discussed by the authors and has been studied in many nanoscale systems, and potential applications of this electromechanical phenomenon have been discussed.
Abstract: Flexoelectricity—the coupling between polarization and strain gradients—is a universal effect allowed by symmetry in all materials. Following its discovery several decades ago, studies of flexoelectricity in solids have been scarce due to the seemingly small magnitude of this effect in bulk samples. The development of nanoscale technologies, however, has renewed the interest in flexoelectricity, as the large strain gradients often present at the nanoscale can lead to strong flexoelectric effects. Here we review the fundamentals of the flexoelectric effect in solids, discuss its presence in many nanoscale systems, and look at potential applications of this electromechanical phenomenon. The review also emphasizes the many open questions and unresolved issues in this developing field.
