Abstract
A uniform piezoceramic wedge is studied. Singularities of coupled physical fields at the apex of the wedge are investigated with homogeneous boundary conditions on its faces. The problem is solved by using complex representations of the components of the electroelastic field for two basic types of mechanical and electrical boundary conditions. The results of computations are presented.
