• Calculate displacement from applied voltage.
• Estimate required voltage to achieve a desired displacement.
• Determine blocking force and force-displacement relationships.
• Calculate generated voltage and blocking force.
• Calculate mass based on geometry.

2. Evaluate Electrical Characteristics

• Compute capacitance based on actuator geometry and material properties.

3. Analyze Resonance and Dynamics

• Estimate thickness and transversal resonance anti-resonance frequencies.

4. Material and Geometry Inputs

• Select actuator type (tube, plate, cylinder, shear plate, ring, disc, ...).
• Input key dimensions, voltage, and force.
• Choose from standard PI piezo ceramic materials to see how properties influence results.

5. Design Optimization

• Explore trade-offs between displacement, force, and resonance frequency.
• Quickly iterate through design variations to optimize performance for specific applications.

In short, the PI Piezo Calculator is a quick, application-level tool for estimating piezo transducer performance without running a full finite element analysis (FEA). It's intended for feasibility checks, early-stage design, and educational purposes, providing fast approximations that guide component selection and integration.
