Monte Carlo simulation of ferroelectric composites

Abstract On the basis of 0–3/1–3 mix‐connectivity model of composites, a new computer model was introduced to simulate the changing of small ceramic particle size of composites. Monte Carlo algorithm was applied to calculate the effects of particle size on dielectric constant, piezoelectric coefficient, pyroelectric coefficient, and other electrical parameters. Compared with other models, this new model was proved to be more reasonable. POLYM. COMPOS., 28:739–742, 2007. © 2007 Society of Plastics Engineers
