Optimal Design of Adaptive Laminated Beam Using Layerwise Finite Element
First, an efficient and accurate finite element model for smart composite beams is presented. The developed model is based on layerwise theory and includes the electromechanical coupling effects. Then, an efficient design optimization algorithm is developed which combines the layerwise finite elemen...
