Abstract

This dissertation investigates the influence of geometric design on the mechanical properties of BTO structures fabricated via 3D printing. Using finite element modeling (FEM), we simulate mechanical stress responses across a range of architected designs. Results reveal that specific design strategies can significantly enhance performance by promoting favorable stress distributions. This work highlights the critical role of structural design in optimizing functional ceramics and provides a computational framework for the design of next-generation piezoelectric devices.
