Description:
The first-order shear deformation theory is used to study the static behavior of a piezoelectric bimorph beam with delamination between its layers. This delamination is taken with several lengths and locations along the beam with different boundary conditions. The results show that the shape of the axial displacement field is not affected by either the length of the debonded zone or the variation in the ambient. However, this shape is deformed when an electrical field is applied.
