The electroelastic singularity is governed by the real part of (λ -1), and the root of m primary interest is the one with the smallest positive real part between zero and one. In this section, the values of minimum Re[λ ] are shown for single material and bi-material bodies m of revolution. The piezoelectric materials, PZT-4 and PZT-5H, and an elastic material, Al (aluminium), are considered. The material properties of PZT-4 and PZT-5H are given in Table 1, while the elastic constants for Al are E (Young’s modulus) = 68.9 GPa and ν (Poisson’s ratio) = 0.25. The results were obtained using eight equal sub-domains for ϕ and 15-term series solutions for each sub-domain. The boundary conditions under consideration are specified by four letters. The first pair of letters refers to the boundary conditions at ϕ =ϕ0, while the second pair specifies the boundary conditions at ϕ =ϕn. The first letter in each pair concerns the mechanical boundary conditions, with C and F’s denoting clamped and free boundary conditions, respectively, while the second letter concerns the electric boundary conditions with C and O’s representing electrically closed and open boundary conditions, respectively. Accordingly, in the following, COFO boundary conditions mean that the mechanical boundary conditions are clamped and free at ϕ =ϕ0 and ϕ =ϕn, respectively, and the electric boundary conditions are open at ϕ =ϕ0 and ϕ =ϕn.
3.4.1 Bodies of revolution made of a single piezoelectric material
Consider a PZT-4 or PZT-5H body of revolution with a direction of polarization that may not be along the Z-axis (axis of revolution). The geometry of the body considered in this section is similar to geometry II in Fig. 3.4. Figures 3.5 plots the variations of minimum Re[λ ] with m θ for PZT-4 bodies with γ =0, 45 and 90, while Fig. 3.6 plots corresponding curves for PZT-5H bodies. Notably, the results at θ =2π −θ0 are identical to those at θ = in all the cases that are considered in this work. Consequently, the range of θ0 θ considered is between 0 and 180. The λ that corresponds to minimum Re[m λ ] are m all real in the cases examined in Figs. 3.5 and 3.6.
As expected, minimum Re[λ ] does not change with m θ when the direction of polarization is along the Z-axis (γ =0). When the direction of polarization is not along the Z-axis, minimum Re[λ ] varies significantly with θ . For example, when m γ =45, the maximum relative difference may reach 7.8% for a PZT-4 body with COCO boundary conditions, while the maximum difference is about 5.2 % for a PZT-5H body. When γ changes from 0 to 45 or 90, the minimum Re[λ ] may increase or decrease, m
31
depending on the values of θ and the boundary conditions. PZT-4 bodies exhibit more severe electroelastic singularities than PZT-5H bodies under clamped-clamped mechanical boundary conditions; the opposite is true under free-free mechanical boundary conditions.
Figures 3.7 and 3.8 display the variations in minimum Re[λ ] at m θ =60with β for PZT-4 and PZT-5H bodies, respectively. Two values of γ , 0and 45, were considered.
Generally, minimum Re[λ ] declines as β increases, such that a larger β induces more m severe electroelastic singularities at the sharp corner of a body of revolution. Electroelastic singularities under free-free boundary conditions are more severe than those obtained under clamped-clamped boundary conditions. When γ =0, the electric boundary conditions do not significantly affect the singularities. However, when γ =45 , open-open electric boundary conditions results in a smaller minimum Re[λ ] than closed-closed electric m boundary conditions for clamped-clamped bodies of revolution, while the opposite trend is true for bodies of revolution with free-free mechanical boundary conditions. As γ changes from 0 to 45, the λ , which corresponds to minimum Re[m λ ], may change m from real to complex or from complex to real. For instance, under CCCC boundary conditions, λm are complex for γ =45 when β is between 48 and 73 for PZT-4 bodies and between 52 and 70 for PZT-5H bodies, while they are all real for γ =0. A comparison of Figs. 3.7 and 3.8 reveals that PZT-4 bodies have stronger singularities than PZT-5H bodies under clamped-clamped boundary conditions, but not at all values of β under free-free boundary conditions
3.4.2 Bi-material bodies of revolution made of piezoelectric and elastic materials
This section investigates bi-material bodies of revolution with a geometry that is similar to geometry II in Fig. 3.4, in which material 1 is an isotropic elastic material, Al, and material 2 is PZT-4 or PZT-5H. The arrangements considered in Figs. 3.9 to 3.12 are the same as those in Figs. 3.5 to 3.7, respectively, except that bi-material bodies of revolution are considered in Figs. 3.9 to 3.12. Notably, the continuity conditions on the interface between the piezoelectric material and the elastic material are given by Eqs. (3.9a) to (3.9c), (3.9e) to (3.9g) and
( )i+1 (r,θ,ϕi)=0
φ . No electric boundary condition applies at ϕ =ϕ0, and the second letter of the four letters that denote the boundary conditions is replaced by “-“.
Figures 3.9 and 3.10 discover that when γ ≠0, the minimum Re[λ ] does significantly m vary with θ . When γ =45, the maximum relative difference may reach 25% for a PZT-4/Al body under C-CC boundary conditions, while the maximum difference is approximately 16 % for a PZT-5H/Al body. Unlike in Figs. 3.5 and 3.6, the minimum Re[λ ] m for the C-CC boundary conditions can be smaller than those for C-CO boundary conditions, depending on γ and θ . When γ =45, the λ , which correspond to minimum Re[m λ ] m under C-CC boundary conditions, are no longer all real; they are complex for 63 ≤θ ≤110 in Fig. 3.9(b) and 68 ≤θ ≤101 in Fig. 3.10(b). Figure 3.9(b) demonstrates that the minimum Re[λ ] under C-CC boundary conditions are lower than those under free-free m boundary conditions when θ ≤14.
Figures 3.11 and 3.12 plot the variations of minimum Re[λ ] at m θ =60with β for PZT-4/Al and PZT-5H/Al bodies, respectively. The relatively abrupt changes in the curves (i.e., atβ ≈159 under F-FC boundary conditions and β ≈99 under C-CO boundary
conditions in Fig. 3.11(a)) are caused by the roots’s changing from real to complex numbers or from complex to real numbers. Generally, the strength of the electroelastic singularity increases with β . Free-free boundary conditions produce singularities that are more severe than clamped-clamped boundary conditions do, except for β ≥160 . Interestingly, the minimum Re[λ ] for the bodies with m γ =0are more considerably affected by electric boundary conditions than those for the bodies with γ =45. Changing γ from 0 to 45 can alter the minimum Re[λ ] with the maximum relative difference of 9.6% occurring at m
99
β = under C-CO boundary conditions in Fig. 3.11. Unlike the minimum Re[λ ] ≥ 0.5 m for bodies of revolution made of two isotropic elastic materials under free-free boundary conditions given in Huang and Leissa [26], the minimum Re[λ ] can be smaller than 0.5 for m
β larger than around 150under F-FO boundary conditions.
3.4.3 Bi-material bodies of revolution made of piezoelectric materials
The results for bi-material bodies of revolution consisting of PZT-4 and PZT-5H with a horizontal interface are given in Figs. 3.13 and 3.14. Figure 3.13 concerns bodies of revolution with geometry I and geometry II displayed in Fig. 3.4, where materials 1 and 2 are PZT-5H and PZT-4, respectively. Figure 3.14 considers bodies of revolution with geometry II and having various β .
As expected, Fig. 3.13 demonstrates that bodies of revolution with geometry II (α =270) have more severe singularities at the interface corner than do bodies of revolution with geometry I (α =180). When γ =0, the roots corresponding to minimum Re[λ ] are all m real. As γ changes from 0 to 45 or 90, the roots may change from real to complex, depending on θ and the boundary conditions. For instance, for γ =45and under COCO boundary conditions, when θ <51 and θ <36 for geometries I and II, respectively, the roots corresponding to minimum Re[λ ] are complex. The variations of minimum Re[m λ ] m with θ in Fig. 3.13(b) indicate that the maximum difference can reach 11% for geometry I under FOFO boundary conditions, and 7.2% for geometry II under FOFO boundary conditions. When γ =90, the maximum difference between values of minimum Re[λ ] for m various θ reaches 4.5% for geometry I under COCO boundary conditions, and 4.3% for geometry II under FOFO boundary conditions.
Figure 3.14 plots the variations of minimum Re[λ ] at m θ =60 with β for bodies of revolution with geometry II. Two values of γ , 0and 45, were considered. Again, the relatively abrupt changes in the curves are caused by a change in the roots from real to complex or from complex to real. Generally, free-free boundary conditions give more severe singularities at the interface corner than do clamped-clamped boundary conditions. Changing γ from 0 to 45 changes the minimum Re[λ ] by up to 5.0%, as for the body of m revolution with β =105 under COCO boundary conditions.

IV Concluding Remarks
This study found asymptotic solutions to piezoelectric wedges and bodies of revolution to investigate geometrically-induced electroelastic singularities in these bodies based on three-dimensional piezoelaticity theory in a cylindrical coordinate system. The piezoelectric material is first assumed to be anisotropic and its direction of polarization to be arbitrary.
The solutions were obtained using an eigenfunction expansion approach in conjunction with a power series technique to solve the equilibrium and Maxwell’s equations, which are four coupled partial differential equations in terms of the displacement components and electric potential. The present solutions are easily reduced to the solution for anisotropic elastic wedges by eliminating the piezoelastic and dielectric constants. The proposed solutions are verified by performing convergence studies and comparing the results with the published results.
The proposed solution were employed to examine electroelastic singularities in wedges and bodies of revolution that comprise a single piezoelectric material, bounded piezo/isotropic elastic materials, or piezo/piezo materials. The minimum Re[λ ], which is m directly related to the order of the singularity, is displayed for different corner angles, combinations of boundary conditions, and directions of polarization. As expected, the strength of the singularity generally increases with the increase of corner angle. The geometrically induced electroelastic singularity order can depend significantly on the polarized direction. Interestingly, the direction of polarization can be set to eliminate the singularities at the interface of 180owedges made of PZT-5H/Si or PZT-5H/PZT-4 with free-free mechanical boundary conditions. This phenomenon is particularly important because such wedges are frequently encountered in many smart structures.
