Dispersion waves in a submerged thermo-piezoelectric membrane

Wave propagation in a thermo piezoelectric membrane immersed in an in finite fluid medium is discussed using three-dimensional linear theory of elasticity and thermos piezoelectricity. Three displacement potential functions are introduced to uncouple the equations of motion, heat and electric conduction equations. The frequency equations are obtained for longitudinal and flexural modes at the solid fluid interfacial boundary conditions. The numerical results are analyzed for PZT-4 material and the computed stress, strain, electric displacement and temperature distribution are presented in the form of dispersion curves and its characteristics are studied.
