Magnetically induced electric potential in first-order composite beams incorporating couple stress and its flexoelectric effects

A new model of a first-order composite beam with flexoelectric and piezomagnetic layers is developed. The new model is under a transverse magnetic field and can capture the couple stress and its flexoelectric effects. The governing equations are obtained through a variational approach. To illustrate the new model, the static bending problem is analytically solved based on a Navier’s technique. The numerical results reveal that the extension,...
