Modeling of Strain Actuation on Relatively Soft Curved Beams by Piezoelectric Ceramics for De-Icing Systems

In this work, the effects of some geometric and mechanical parameters that characterize curved and relatively soft structures integrated with piezoelectric actuators are investigated. The effect of parameters such as the curvature, location, and extension of the piezo device, as well as the thicknes...
