Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of dynamic homogenization methods for piezoelectric composite materials, and in particular to a method for predicting the dynamic effective properties of piezoelectric composite materials. Background Art
[0002] Piezoelectric materials can achieve the mutual conversion of mechanical energy and electrical energy on a macroscopic scale. This effect is called the piezoelectric effect, which is divided into the direct piezoelectric effect and the inverse piezoelectric effect. The direct piezoelectric effect converts mechanical quantities (deformation or force) into electrical signals; the inverse piezoelectric effect converts electrical signals into mechanical quantities (deformation or force). Based on the direct and inverse piezoelectric effects, piezoelectric materials are widely used in various fields. With the continuous breakthrough of technology, higher requirements are also placed on the performance of piezoelectric materials. Conventional piezoelectric monomer materials, such as piezoelectric single crystals and piezoelectric ceramics, can no longer meet the needs.
[0003] Piezoelectric composite materials are generally composed of piezoelectric inclusion phase and polymer matrix phase (see Appendix Figure 1 The piezoelectric composite material (which may or may not possess piezoelectricity) is composed of a specific connectivity pattern, volume or weight ratio, and spatial geometric distribution. This information constitutes the microstructure of the piezoelectric composite material and plays a crucial role in its macroscopic effective properties. The piezoelectric phase is used to produce the piezoelectric effect, while the polymer phase is mainly used to reduce the material's density and permittivity and increase its elastic compliance constant. This design can exponentially improve the material's macroscopic piezoelectric performance and also possess certain excellent properties that piezoelectric monomers do not have.
[0004] Based on classical elastic micromechanics theory, a micromechanical model of static piezoelectric composites has been established. This model predicts the static macroscopic effective properties of piezoelectric composites based on microstructural information, thereby optimizing the composite's macroscopic behavior through rational microstructural design. Under the action of elastic waves, the dynamic macroscopic effective properties of piezoelectric composites are no longer constant, but instead vary depending on the frequency. Currently, there are few theoretical methods for predicting the dynamic effective properties of piezoelectric composites, which to some extent restricts their widespread application as elastic wave control materials.

[0007] The above two papers 1-2 are the papers published by the inventors in the early stage, which give the prediction method of piezoelectric composites containing aligned ellipsoidal inclusions and semi-ellipsoidal inclusions. However, the above research does not consider the influence of the distribution of the inclusion direction on the macroscopic dynamic effective properties of the piezoelectric composite.

[0012] The literatures 3-5 have the problems of great difficulty, long period and high cost in experimental testing of dynamic effective properties of piezoelectric composites. This is because the piezoelectric composites often work in a frequency range, which requires the designed piezoelectric composites to exhibit optimal dynamic effective properties in the working frequency range. In fact, there are many parameters affecting the dynamic effective properties of piezoelectric composites, including the material properties of the inclusion phase, the material properties of the matrix phase, the inclusion volume fraction, the inclusion cross-sectional coefficient, the inclusion direction, the inclusion alignment degree, the inclusion size, and these parameters jointly affect the macroscopic effective properties of the composites with frequency. If the optimal effective properties are found by experimental means, many parameters need to be controlled, which requires the preparation of a large number of samples for testing; in addition, the working frequency is a range, and multiple tests need to be done in the frequency range for each sample, so this traditional experimental method has the problems of great difficulty, long period and high cost. SUMMARY

[0134] Advantages of the present application:
[0135] 1. The present application comprehensively considers the influence of the microstructure information of the piezoelectric composite material and the frequency of the elastic wave on the macroscopic dynamic effective property of the piezoelectric composite material, and has a clear physical meaning. By using experimental data parameters obtained by experiment or by referring to prior art materials, the macroscopic dynamic effective parameters of the piezoelectric composite material can be predicted, and the effective wave propagation characteristics such as attenuation, effective phase velocity and effective acoustic impedance when the elastic wave propagates in the piezoelectric composite material can also be predicted.
[0136] 2. The prediction method of the dynamic effective property of the piezoelectric composite material based on the effective medium theory of micromechanics has obvious advantages in efficiency and economy, and can solve the shortcomings of long test period and high cost of dynamic characteristic test experiments of the piezoelectric composite material.
[0137] 3. The present application is not only suitable for the prediction of the dynamic effective property of the piezoelectric composite material, but also suitable for the prediction of the dynamic effective property of the pure elastic composite material, which only needs to degenerate the piezoelectric coefficient in the model to zero.
[0138] 4. The present application is suitable for the case of completely aligned inclusions, completely random inclusions and inclusions with arbitrary direction and satisfying certain directional preference, and therefore has the characteristic of wide application range.
[0139] 5. There is no dynamic homogenization theory based on the microstructure information of the material that links the distribution of the inclusion direction angle to the macroscopic dynamic effective property of the piezoelectric composite material. The present application introduces a function of the distribution of the inclusion direction angle to represent the alignment degree of the inclusions, which can be completely aligned, not aligned but with certain directional preference, or completely random direction. The present application establishes a prediction model of the macroscopic dynamic effective property of the piezoelectric composite material containing inclusions with arbitrary direction by using the self-consistent method, so as to obtain the continuous variation relationship of the dynamic effective property with frequency.

[0172] 3.2 Setting the microstructure information parameters of piezoelectric composite materials
[0173] In the global coordinate system o-x1x2x3, the piezoelectric composite material macroscopically exhibits transverse isotropy, and the symmetry axis is the x3 axis; the piezoelectric composite material is composed of a matrix phase and an inclusion phase, wherein the inclusion phase is a dispersed phase, and the volume fraction is c n , the matrix phase is a continuous phase, and the volume fraction is c m ; c n and c m are given in step two of the piezoelectric composite material preparation process; which can be expressed as
[0174] c m +c n =1 (1)

[0179]
[0180] Where λ and α are obtained in step two; λ=0 represents that the inclusion is completely randomly distributed; λ>0 represents that the inclusion begins to exhibit a certain directional preference; the larger the value of λ, the more obvious the directional preference of the inclusion, that is, the higher the alignment degree; λ→∞ represents that the rotating axis of the inclusion is completely aligned with the x3 axis;
