...John Stephen Mario A.; Parvez Alam; Jaesun Lee; S.R. Manam Purpose The analysis of horizontally polarized shear wave (SH-wave) into a piezoelectric layer overlying a functionally graded transversely isotropic (FGTI) half-space under the influence of an impulsive point source existing at its...

...Ritesh Kumar; Himanshu Pathak; Akhilendra Singh; Mayank Tiwari Purpose The purpose of this paper is to analyze the repair of a straight and angular crack in the structure using a piezoelectric material under thermo-mechanical loading by the extended finite element method (XFEM) approach...

...Litesh N Sulbhewar; P. Raveendranath Purpose – Piezoelectric extension mode smart beams are vital part of modern control technology and their numerical analysis is an important step in the design process. Finite elements based on First-order Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT) are widely used...
