Definition of Piezoelectric
Coefficients and Directions
Orthogonal system
describing the
properties of a poled
piezoelectric ceramic.
Axis 3 is the poling
direction.
Because of the
anisotropic nature of
Piezo ceramics,
effects are dependent
on direction.
Definition of Piezoelectric
Coefficients and Directions
To identify directions
the axes, termed 1,
2, and 3, are
introduced
(analogous to X, Y,
Z of the classical
right hand
orthogonal axial
set).
The axes 4, 5 and 6
identify rotations
(shear).
Definition:
S = strain = constant (mechanically
clamped)
T = stress = constant (not clamped)
E = field = constant (short circuit)
D = electrical displacement = constant
(open circuit)
