The functionally graded layers are inhomogeneous along the thickness direction, while the piezoelectric layer is homogeneous;both possess material orthotropy. 假设上下功能梯度层的材料参数沿厚度连续变化,而压电层则是均匀材料,并且它们都是正交各向异性的。
Complex analysis of anisotropic elasticity indicates that the degree of anisotropy (orthotropy) is characterized by two basic complex parameters. 正交各向异性可以表征复合材料的各向异性特征。
