Mahieddine}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {The FOSDT (the First Order Shear Deformation Theory) is taking into consideration to study the static behavior of a bimorph beam, with a delamination zone between the upper and the lower layer. The effect of limit conditions and lengths of the delamination zone are presented in this paper, with a PVDF piezoelectric material application. A FEM “Finite Element Method” is used to discretize the beam. In the axial displacement, a displacement field appears in the debonded zone with inverse effect between the upper and the lower layer was observed. }, journal = {International Journal of Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering}, volume = {8}, number = {12}, year = {2014}, pages = {2108 - 2111}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/10001033}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/96}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 96, 2014}, }
