We introduce a new concept of SHM transducers based on ceramic multilayers. This approach allows for a tremendous improvement of robustness against environmental influences as well as integration of electronic components for signal processing. The so-called LTCC/PZT modules are prepared by laminating fired PZT ceramic discs with LTCC green layers and subsequent sintering. Experimental results on transducer properties will be presented and compared to FEM modeling.enstructural health monitoring (SHM)LTCC/PZT module620666620conference paper
