Abstract

The thickness response of a piezothermoelastic panel, which is occupied by a material of hexagonal crystal class in a natural state, is studied under quasi-static boundary conditions with one of the bounding faces subject to prescribed temperature. It is shown that the temperature on the other bounding face can be controlled by the difference of electric potential between the faces.

Then the same matter is studied in the presence of bias fields with the electric one parallel to the polarization direction.
