Effects of loading contact on electric-power generation of lead zirconate titanate piezoelectric ceramic plate
Abstract To better understand the generation of electric power for piezoelectric PbZrTiO3 (PZT) ceramic plate (ϕ25 mm), an attempt was made to investigate experimentally and numerically electric- power generation characteristics during cyclic bending under various loading fixtures (ϕ0–ϕ20 mm), i.e.,...
