Abstract

This paper presents investigations of vibrations of cantilever beams with piezoelectric layers. The paper discusses the contemporary engineering and scientific software systems in order to select the appropriate for the study of mechanical and electrical dynamic behavior of piezoelectric beams.The system COMSOL has been chosen and a study with it has been stated with a static analysis and an eigenvalue analysis. Conclusions are made and a frequency response and time dependent investigations are planned to be done.
