Abstract

We rigorously establish the existence of the limithomogeneous constitutive law of a piezoelectric composite made of periodicallyperforated microstructures and whose reference configuration is athin shell with fixed thickness. We deal with an extension of theKoiter shell model in which the three curvilinear coordinates ofthe elastic displacement field and the electric potential arecoupled. By letting the size of themicrostructure going to zero and by using the periodicunfolding method combined with the Korn's inequality in perforateddomains, we obtain the limit model.
