We seek a solution for a piezoelectric cylinder acted on the end faces by applied tractions and charges, under the hypothesis that both the stress and electric displacement fields depend linearly on the axial coordinate. The analysis, restricted to monoclinic materials of crystallographic class 2, l

β¦ Synopsis
For a helical body made of a linear piezoelectric material and loaded at one end only by a system of self-equilibrated forces, it is shown that the strain energy stored in the part of the body distant at least s from the loaded end decreases exponentially with the distance s.

Toupin's version of the Saint-Venant's principle in linear elasticity is generalized to the case of linear elastic porous materials. That is, it is shown that, for a straight prismatic bar made of a linear elastic material with voids and loaded by a self-equilibrated system of forces at one end only
