摘要
Background, Motivation and Objective In the classical piezoelectric elastic theory, the stress at a piezoelectric material point is assumed to be dependent upon the strain and electric field at same piezoelectric material point, and no characteristic length is included in the constitutive relations. Therefore, the classical piezoelectric elastic theory cannot describe the mechanical and electrical behave of piezoelectric material at the micro or nano scale and size effects. The find of the flexoelectric effects in piezoelectric solids and the potential applications at nanoscale electromechanical system make the investigation of acoustic wave propagation in the piezoelectric solid with the flexoelectric effects taken into consideration necessary. The influences of the flexoelectric effects on the wave propagation mode and the dispersive relations of these waves are therefore interesting. Statement of Contribution/Methods The reflection and transmission phenomenon of acoustic propagation at a piezoelectric half-space and through layered structure are considered. The piezoelectric solids are modeled by the generalized elastic theory with the strain gradient terms included in the constitutive relations to reflect the flexoelectric effects. Due to the flexoelectric effects, there are five kinds of wave propagation modes appeared instead of three propagation modes in the classic piezoelectric solids. Not only that, the traditional surface tractions should be modified as the monopolar surface tractions and the dipolar surface tractions. Accordingly, the traditional surface/interface conditions are replaced by the new surface/interface conditions when the flexoelectric effects are taken into consideration. Results Two boundary conditions(traction-free and electrically shorted/charge-free) and interface conditions with mechanically and dielectrically perfect and imperfect are considered in the present work. The amplitude ratios and energy flux ratios of the reflection waves and transmission waves with respect of the incident waves are computed numerically based on these non-traditional surface/interface conditions. The numerical results are validated by considering the energy conservation between the incident wave, reflection waves and the transmission waves. Discussion and Conclusions The flexoelectric effects in piezoelectric solids create new wave propagation modes, namely, the evanescent quasi longitudinal waves and quasi transverse waves, which degenerate to the P-type surface wave and S-type surface wave at the surface/interface of the piezoelectric solids. Not only that, the flexoelectric effects in piezoelectric solids also make the dispersive characteristic changed evidently. Therefore, the reflection and transmission properties are dependent upon the incident frequency and the incident wavelength. For the incident waves with high frequency or short wavelength, the flexoelectric effects are not ignored any more.
