The two concrete piezoelectric acoustic and stress finite element formulations are proposed and reviewed for comparison and for accurate prediction of thermomechanical waves and stresses, respectively. The relationships between the LSAW wave velocities and the substrate thickness variations are highlighted and reflected using the verified effective multivariable piezoelectric element computation. It is demonstrated that for cases of thin substructures, the reflecting LSAW waves become serious, but can be well suppressed. Hybrid leaky and disturbed piezoelectric SAW stabilities with respect to electrode and/or substrate heights and Euler angle are computationally studied and stressed in this paper. %8 2006-02-27
