Radial electroelastic nonstationary vibration of a hollow piezoceramic cylinder subject to electric excitation

The paper studies the radial nonstationary vibration of a piezoceramic cylinder polarized throughout the thickness and subjected to a dynamic electric load. A numerical algorithm for solving an initial–boundary-value problem using mesh-based approximations and difference schemes is developed. The dynamic electroelastic state of the cylinder subjected to a constant potential difference applied instantaneously is analyzed Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika, Vol. 45, No. 2, pp. 30–35, February 2009.
