Static and Dynamic Coupled Fields in Bodies with Piezoeffects or Polarization Gradient (Lecture Notes in Applied and Computational Mechanics)

This book is devoted to the theory of coupled electro-magneto-thermo-elastic fields excited in different bodies by various sources, both static and dynamic. It presents the classical piezoelectric and piezomagnetic effects, the Mindlin’s electroelastic coupling due to a polarization gradient, and different combinations of these effects with thermoelasticity.
