    Abstract

    A three point bending test is considered for analysing the effect of fibre-orientation on electric response of fibre reinforced composites attaché a piezoelectric sensor. The study involves finite element simulation on a bended unidirectional carbon fibre reinforced plastic piezoceramic composite laminate. Specifically, finite element analysis is used in order to establish a relationship between the fibre angle of the carbon-fibre and the electric response of the piezoceramic, under 3 point bending. The validity of the FE results is compared experimental observations.
