Asymptotic model of composite piezoelectric beam

A method of transition from the three-dimensional piezoelastic problem for a composite material to the one-dimensional problem for a piezoelastic beam is presented. This is done using an asymptotic method of homogenization based on the separation of fast and slow variables in the solution. A special feature of the problem is the presence of two small parameters, one of which characterizes the microstructure of the composite material, and the other the cross-sectional size. Averaged relations describing the piezoelastic beam and fast correctors were obtained. Their joint use makes it possible to correctly describe the total stress-strain state of the initial three-dimensional body. The proposed method is suitable for solving the three-dimensional problem of deformation of an extended bodies with an arbitrary periodic structure and new problems (e.g., the torsion problem) that have no analogues in the theory of piezoelastic plates.
