    Notes: Plane wave propagation at the composite–medium interface is analyzed for the piezoceramic polymer composites with laminated periodic structure. It is found that the input acoustic impedance of the composite depends on the elastic properties of the medium at the interface and in general is a complex number and dispersive. It is also found that the reflected wave from the medium–composite interface suffers a more than 180° phase change, which implies that the thickness of the conventional antireflection "quarter wave matching layer'' at the interface should be less than a quarter wave length. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A dynamic theory on the piezoceramic polymer composite with 2-2 connectivity is presented. By adopting an approach similar to the Lamb waves in a plate, the distributions of the elastic and electric fields in a piezocomposite are solved and the dispersion curves are obtained. Based on these results, a method is developed to evaluate the sound velocity, acoustic impedance, and electromechanical coupling factor kt in a composite. The theoretical predictions are in excellent agreement with the experimental results.

    Notes: The dynamic behaviors of periodic piezoceramic-polymer composite plates, especially the effect of the finite thickness on the strain distributions and resonant modes, are studied theoretically. It is found that as long as fL1〈ft1, where fL1 and ft1are the thickness and first piezoelectric active stop band-edge mode frequencies, there exists a frequency f1 near fL1at which the polymer and ceramic vibrate in phase with equal amplitude in the x3 direction. The effect of the thickness of a composite plate is to change the bandwidth in which the two vibrate in unison. It is also found that due to the finite thickness effect a series of piezoelectric active modes at frequencies near and above ft1may be excited. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The article presents the results of a recent investigation on the ultrasonic performance of 1-3 piezocomposites. Using a guided wave approach, the electromechanical properties of the thickness resonance are modeled and the results are compared with the experimental data. The influence of various losses in a 1-3 composite on the dispersion curves and the quality factor for the thickness mode is examined. It is found that the reduction in the quality factor of a composite compared with piezoceramic is mainly due to the acoustic coupling between the two constituents. Even for a composite with the mechanical Q of the polymer higher than that of the ceramic, the mechanical Q of the composite is still lower than that of the ceramic except when the ceramic volume content is very low. Hence, in most of piezoceramic polymer composites, the mechanical Q of the ceramic phase plays a major role in determining the quality factor of a 1-3 composite transducer. For the lateral modes in a 1-3 composite, it is found experimentally that the frequencies of the two lowest lateral modes can be determined approximately by the shear wave velocity and the width of the polymer gap over a broad ceramic volume fraction range, suggesting that they correspond to the half-wave standing waves in the polymer gap. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
