Abstract:

This Measurement Good Practice Guide is intended to help a user to perform resonance spectra measurements on piezoelectric ceramics. The phenomenon of resonance is introduced and linked to the evaluation of the piezoelectric matrix by appropriate choice of sample geometry, and data analysis method. The IEEE method and complex coefficient method is explained and compared with a worked example helping the user to understand the stages of measurement and analysis.
