Abstract Linear dynamics and distributed control of piezoelectric laminated continua have been intensively studied in recent years. In this study, dynamics, electromechanical couplings, and control of thermal buckling of a piezoelectric laminated circular plate with an initial nonlinear large deformation are investigated. It is assumed that the von Karman type geometrically nonlinear deformation is considered. In addition, the piezoelectric layers are uniformly distributed on the top and bottom surfaces of the circular plate. Accordingly, control effect is introduced via an equivalent control moment on the circumference. Dynamic equations and boundary conditions including elastic and piezoelectric couplings are formulated, and solutions are derived. Active control of plate’s nonlinear deflections, thermal buckling, and natural frequencies using high control voltages are studied, and their nonlinear effects are evaluated.

In our country, the progress lag even casualties caused by landslide or collapse of tunnel portal occurs from time to time, so how to make scientific analysis on the stability of side slope of the tunnel entrance and put forward effective control technology are important problems urgent to solve in tunnel engineering. This paper mainly analyzes the influencing factors of stability of side slope of the tunnel entrance and failure mode of side slope and puts forward the corresponding control measures to ensure the safety of the tunnel construction.
