Abstract
The homogenized and local behavior of wavy brick-and-mortar structures accounting for the piezoelectric multiphysics effect was studied in a systematic manner. The information on the connection between composite microstructure and their macro-properties serves as the directives for devising and crafting engineered materials that align with specific target performance criteria. Secondly, we scrutinized the potential of the multiphysics finite-volume direct averaging micromechanics (MFVDAM) method and compared it with finite element techniques in simulating the effective and local piezoelectric response within wavy brick-and-mortar architectures. The numerical findings demonstrated robust agreement between the two methods, underscoring that the MFVDAM stands as a convincing alternative to the finite element approach for examining multiphysics challenges encompassing various microstructures and scales. This establishes a benchmark for comparison against conventional micromechanics techniques.
