Abstract
The mechanical response in an N-electrode piezo-quartz bar where two c onsecutive electrodes are separated by an unelectroded region has been studied under electrical and thermal excitations. The bar is subjecte d to a periodic polarization gradient and a constant flow of heat. The method of operational calculus and Green's function has been used to solve the problem. For time scale ranging from 0.1 to 1.0 s the respon se becomes a linear function of time and is of the order of 10(-8) m.
