A theoretical and experimental investigation into multilayered piezoelectric composite transducers [PDF]
The behaviour of a number of 3-1 connectivity piezoelectric composite plate transducers is presented. The fundamental thickness mode resonance of such devices is found to be contaminated by lateral resonant activity; this is evidenced in the measured and
