Energy principle of ferroelectric ceramics and single domain mechanical model
Many physical experiments have shown that the domain switching in a ferroelectric material is a complicated evolution process of the domain wall with...

A finite element prediction of ferroelectric switching behavior using a regular dodecahedron RVE
Some piezoelectric ceramic materials do behave in a nonlinear way when they are subjected to large electric or mechanical stress fields. This...

Tri-Duality Theory in Phase Transformations of Ferroelectric Crystals with Random Defects
This paper presents a general solution theory to the Landau-Ginzburg (LG) equation in the presence of a high concentration of point defects of which... -
On domain switching in deformable ferroelectrics, seen as continua with microstructure
We obtain a three-dimensional continuum model for deformable ferroelectric bodies in their polar phase characterized by a spontaneous polarization....
