Layered Piezoelectric Composites: Macroscopic Behaviour

  • Chapter
Smart Structures

Part of the book series: NATO Science Series ((ASHT,volume 65))

Abstract

The knowledge of artificial composite materials (French acronym — Science de Matériaux ARTificiels) reaches a prehistory. Architecture, textile craftmanship, jewellery have used such materials extensively. For example, in mid-way between Pu/ltusk and Warsaw, in Wieliszew in 1992, in an archeological excavation, a V-IV century dish made of clay ceramics with 3 brass circles inserted was found.
