The coupled problem of forced vibrations and self-heating of thermoviscoelectroelastic shells of revolution with piezoceramic sensor and actuator under monoharmonic loading is solved. The temperature dependence of the complex characteristics of the passive and piezoactive materials is taken into account. The coupled nonlinear problem of thermoelectroelasticity is solved by time-marching integration, using discrete orhogonalization to integrate the equations of elasticity and explicit finite differencing to solve the heat conduction equation. The effect of the dimensions of the sensor and actuator and self-heating on the sensor voltage and on the active damping of forced vibrations of a circular plate under uniform monoharmonic transverse pressure is studied Introduction. Study of the forced vibrations of layered plates and shells is an important division of dynamics because they model the mechanical behavior of the majority of thin-walled structural members in modern engineering. These elements sustain intensive stationary and nonstationary, including harmonic loads, which can cause large stresses and high-amplitude displacements. Passive damping is used to decrease the amplitude of forced vibrations of thin-walled elements with highly elastic coatings with high hysteresis losses [3, 15, 16, etc.]. Recent trends are toward intensive development of methods for active control and damping of stationary and nonstationary vibrations of thin-walled elements with piezoelectric inclusions [13, 20, 27, 28, etc.]. Such inclusions play the role of either sensors, which indicate the mechanical state of the thin-walled element, or actuators, to which voltage of appropriate amplitude and phase is applied to damp the mechanical vibrations of the element. The forced vibrations of thin-walled elements are usually controlled using both actuators and sensors. The sensor-actuator relationship is described by feedback equations [9,13,27,28]. The state of the art in active damping of the vibrations of thin-walled elements in the isothermal case is discussed in the monographs [13, 27, 28, etc.].The effectiveness of active damping is strongly dependent on the electromechanical properties of materials, the dimensions and arrangement of the sensors and actuators, and the boundary conditions [10,12,14]. A significant factor influencing the effectiveness of active damping is thermal effects due to hysteresis losses in the material or heat transfer to the environment. The influence of temperature on the effectiveness of actuators and sensors in damping the forced vibrations of circular and rectangular plates was first studied in [3-11, etc.]. Electromechanical models of layered shells with distributed piezoelectric sensors and actuators for controlling forced stationary and nonstationary vibrations were constructed in [7,8].A separate group of structural elements includes sandwich structures with one passive layer bonded to two piezoactive layers of which one is an actuator and the other is a sensor. Numerical results were mainly obtained f...
