Control of stress response in a rotating infinite hollow multilayered piezoelectric cylinder

The theoretical study of the control of stress is developed for a rotating infinite hollow multilayered radially polarized piezoelectric cylinder. The exact solution is obtained by means of the state-space method. As an illustrative example, the distribution of the radial and tangential stresses in a rotating hollow internally pressurized five-layered piezoelectric cylinder subjected to different electric potential at the internal and external surfaces are performed. Numerical results show that the distribution of the stress can be controlled by applying appropriate electric potentials at the correct surfaces.
