Etymology

From piezo- + elastic.

Meanings

1. (not-comparable) Responding to mechanical stress by behaving like a capacitor in the electrical domain and like a simple spring-mass system in the mechanical domain.
   • Before undertaking the broadband comparisons of the piezomagnetoelastic and piezoelastic configurations, the voltage history of Figure 8.17b is reconsidered in two parts. 2011, Alper Erturk, Daniel J. Inman, Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting:
   • The equivalent circuit of the piezoelastic layer is shown in Figure 6.11 which says that basically the piezoelastic layer behaves like a capacitor in the electrical domain and like a simple spring-mass system in the mechanical domain. 2012, Denny K. Miu, Mechatronics: Electromechanics and Contromechanics, page 88:
