Summary

The present work concerns a comprehensive study of the phenomenon of piezoelectricity, starting from its basic principles and developments, proceeding to the analysis of materials that manifest such property, and ending with applications and techniques of oscillation damping. The definition and history of piezoelectricity, piezoelectric materials, as well as their modern and innovative applications in everyday life and engineering are reviewed in detail. Special emphasis is placed on the mathematical description of the phenomenon, through which the process of converting mechanical energy into electrical energy and vice versa is explained, as well as on the methods of damping oscillations that improve the efficiency and safety of systems. The future prospects of piezoelectricity promise further developments in technological applications, opening up new avenues for science and technology.
