Due to the large coupling between their electrical and mechanical properties, ferroelectric
ceramics are increasingly being implemented in novel devices. This review reports on …

A continuum thermodynamics framework is devised to model the evolution of ferroelectric
domain structures. The theory falls into the class of phase-field or diffuse-interface modeling …

A phenomenological constitutive law for ferroelectric switching due to multi-axial mechanical
and electrical loading of a polycrystalline material is developed. The framework of the law is …

This work provides a family of explicit phenomenological models both in the F− H and F− B
variable space. These models are derived directly from an analytical implicit …

While the theory and application of finite elements methods can be extended to
incompatible, hybrid, and mixed element methods, important issues, such as determining …

A phase-field model is presented for modeling the fracture of piezoelectric ceramics. The
implementation of several different crack face boundary conditions, including conducting …

This paper presents a general framework for the macroscopic, continuum‐based formulation
and numerical implementation of dissipative functional materials with electro‐magneto …

This work provides a rigorous analysis of the effective response, ie, average magnetization
and magnetostriction, of magnetoelastic composites that are subjected to overall magnetic …

Piezoelectrics and ferroelectrics have been widely used in modern industries because of
their peculiar electromechanical coupling properties, quick response, and compact size. In …

Different formulations of the constitutive laws and governing equations for nonlinear
electroelastic solids are reviewed and two new variational principles for electroelastostatics …
