piezo- +‎ elastic

Adjective

[edit]

piezoelastic (not comparable)

  1. Responding to mechanical stress by behaving like a capacitor in the electrical domain and like a simple spring-mass system in the mechanical domain.
    • 2011, Alper Erturk, Daniel J. Inman, Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting:
      Before undertaking the broadband comparisons of the piezomagnetoelastic and piezoelastic configurations, the voltage history of Figure 8.17b is reconsidered in two parts.
    • 2012, Denny K. Miu, Mechatronics: Electromechanics and Contromechanics, page 88:
      The equivalent circuit of the piezoelastic layer is shown in Figure 6.11 which says that basically the piezoelastic layer behaves like a capacitor in the electrical domain and like a simple spring-mass system in the mechanical domain.
