Y. Yamada et M. Sato, APPLICATION OF EXTENDED FINITE-DIFFERENCE TIME-DOMAIN METHOD TO 2-DIMENSIONAL DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF A PIEZOELECTRIC VIBRATOR, JPN J A P 1, 37(1), 1998, pp. 255-256
We propose a new algorithm that simulates the dynamic response of a pi
ezoelectric vibrator. We derived this algorithm by incorporating new t
erms corresponding to the electric fields in the conventional finite-d
ifference time-domain (FD-TD) method for elastodynamics. The FD-TD met
hod, which is widely used to analyze electromagnetic waves or elastody
namics, requires less computation than the finite element method (FEM)
.
