Averaging the physical properties of fibrous piezocomposites

Elastic, piezoelectric, and dielectric properties of fibrous composites with piezoelectric components are averaged for antiplane strains. Methods for determining coupled electroelastic fields in piezocomposites are proposed. Calculation results of the effective physical characteristics of some composites are given.Sumskii State University, Ukraine.
