“…Vidal et al (2016) developed a numerical model to research the static response of the carbon-fiber-reinforced laminate plates actuated by piezoelectric fiber composite actuators through the separation of variables method. Lin et al (2017) studied the influences of external temperature on the piezoelectric coefficients, free-strain performance, and electromechanical coupling properties for the piezoelectric fiber composite actuators. Wang et al (2019) maximized the deformation ability of the smart laminate plates by way of optimizing both the substrate laminate plate and the piezoelectric composite actuator.…”

Piezoelectric ceramics are a very popular material in the field of actuator technology due to their unique piezoelectric properties. However, the brittle behavior of ceramics endangers the reliability of piezoelectric actuators. In this article, the three-dimensional braided piezoelectric composite is utilized to ameliorate the reliability and driving capability of piezoelectric actuators. The static analysis of laminated beam with the distributed braided piezoelectric composite actuator is presented to study its driving capability. Based on the piezoelectric constitutive equations and Euler–Bernoulli beam theory, the governing equation of the piezoelectric laminated beam is derived. The least-squares method for the piezoelectric laminated beam is established to solve the derived governing equation. The current approach is validated by comparison with published results and finite element results. In the numerical examples, the effects of the number and spacing of the three-dimensional braided piezoelectric composite patches, actuator central location, actuator length, actuator thickness ratio, cantilever beam thickness, applied voltage and fiber volume fraction on the driving capability of the distributed braided piezoelectric composite actuator are investigated. This study suggests the potential use of the distributed braided piezoelectric composite actuator in intelligent structures and provides useful guidance for the design and optimization of piezoelectric actuators.

“…However, there are some external independent parameters (environmental parameters) that could have a strong influence on the energy harvesting system efficiency. Such a parameter could be an operation temperature which is considered, for example, in Reference [17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26].…”

“…In Reference [23], the actuation performances of piezoelectric fibre composites (PFCs) were studied when they were exposed to ambient temperatures from −15 °C to 80 °C. PFCs are often used in various aerospace structures and they are exposed to a wide range of temperatures during exploitation while the temperature effects on the mechanical properties of PFCs are important.…”

“…However, one should remember the influence of temperature on the efficiency of their operation. As the authors of the studies [17,20,21,23,26] pointed out, changes in the operating temperature of the system already in the range of relatively small deviations from room temperature can significantly influence its parameters and efficiency. On the other hand, in References [24,25], the authors showed the stability of classic piezoelectric transducers PZT up to a temperature of 150 °C, as well as small values of thermal expansion of composite transducers.…”

Macro Fibre Composites (MFC) are very effective piezoelectric transducers that, among others, can be used as elements of energy harvesting systems. The possibility to generate electric energy, for example, from mechanical vibrations in order to power electrical elements that could not be powered in another way (using wires or batteries) is a great solution. However, such a kind of systems has to be designed by considering all phenomena that could occur during the exploitation of the system. One of those phenomena is the temperature fluctuation during the device operation. In the presented research work, a mathematical model of the energy harvesting system based on MFC transducers is proposed. The mathematical model was validated by laboratory tests conducted on a laboratory stand equipped with a universal mechanical testing machine (Instron Electropuls 10000) and a thermal chamber. During the tests, the samples were subjected to cyclic excitation simulating the operation of the system in various environmental conditions by forcing changes in the system operation temperature with the constant conditions of its excitation.
