Piezoelectric Coupling
The piezoelectric effect is an interaction between the mechanical and electrical physics, where a stress applied on a piezoelectric material generates a voltage (direct effect) or a voltage applied on it generates the deformation of the material (inverse effect). In COMSOL Multiphysics, the Piezoelectric Devices interface is constituted of one Solid Mechanics and one Electrostatics interface, which are coupled together by a Piezoelectric Effect multiphysics feature. Hence a piezoelectric problem contains solid and electrostatic domains, with at least one domain shared by the two physics interfaces and with the piezoelectric coupling defined on it.
