F. Ashida et al., AN INVERSE THERMOELASTIC PROBLEM IN AN ISOTROPIC PLATE ASSOCIATED WITH A PIEZOELECTRIC CERAMIC PLATE, Journal of thermal stresses, 19(2), 1996, pp. 153-167
This article discusses an inverse thermoelastic problem in an isotropi
c structural plate onto which a piezoelectric ceramic plate is perfect
ly bonded When unknown heating temperature acts on the free surface of
the isotropic structural plate, an electric potential is induced in t
he piezoelectric ceramic plate. Therefore, the unknown heating tempera
ture is inferred from the prescribed electric potential, and then resp
onse quantities in the thermal, elastic, and electric fields are deriv
ed tao. Finally numerical results are illustrated graphically.
