Creating the Coupled Band Gaps in Piezoelectric Composite Plates by Interconnected Electric Impedance

In this paper, we investigate the coupled band gaps created by the locking phenomenon between the electric and flexural waves in piezoelectric composite plates. To do that, the distributed piezoelectric materials should be interconnected via a ‘global’ electric network rather tha...
