In this tutorial Simulation Piezoelectric displacement under electrical potential in Abaqus has been studied.Piezoelectric Effect is the ability of certain materials to generate an electric charge in response to applied mechanical stress.One of the unique characteristics of the piezoelectric effect is that it is reversible, meaning that materials exhibiting the direct piezoelectric effect (the generation of electricity when stress is applied) also exhibit the converse piezoelectric effect (the generation of stress when an electric field is applied).When piezoelectric material is placed under mechanical stress, a shifting of the positive and negative charge centers in the material takes place, which then results in an external electrical field. When reversed, an outer electrical field either stretches or compresses the piezoelectric material.The piezoelectric effect is very useful within many applications that involve the production and detection of sound, generation of high voltages, electronic frequency generation, microbalances, and ultra fine focusing of optical assemblies. It is also the basis of a number of scientific instrumental techniques with atomic resolution, such as scanning probe microscopes (STM, AFM, etc). The piezoelectric effect also has its use in more mundane applications as well, such as acting as the ignition source for cigarette lighters.You can see a figure of the assembled parts at below
The sinusoidal voltage is applied to the top surface of the PZT part and the aluminium core has got effect from the PZT reaction. During the simulation the PZT convert electrical voltage to the displacement and it is clear in visualization. You can see some figures of the results at below
