The effects of applied stresses on dynamic characteristics of piezoelectric ceramics are analyzed based on the nonlinear electroelastic theory. Piezoelectric ceramics are used in many electric devices as functional elements, where mechanical constraint is usually applied. Estimation of piezoelectric properties under applied stresses is important in designing the devices. However, applied stresses cannot be considered in the basic equations in the linear piezoelectric theory, and the effects of the applied stresses cannot be predicted. In this study, we introduce additional terms related to the dissipation effects, specifically, electric conduction and internal viscosity resistance, and nonlinearity of elastic properties into electroelastic theory. As well, considered nonlinear effects are elastic, piezoelectric and dielectric constants up to 3rd order. Frequency dependence of admittance of PZT disks is measured under applied compressions, showing that applied stresses have certain influences on either of thickness and radial vibrations of PZT. Assuming proper material constants, experimental results can be well explained by the nonlinear electroelastic theory.
