This paper deals with the controller design for multi-layered piezoelectric structures. From the control point of view piezoelectric materials have the big advantage of making it easy to adjust the actuators and sensors to the special structural application that is to be controlled. It will be shown that an appropriate spatial shaping of the surface electrodes of the piezoelectric actuator and sensor layers simplifies the control synthesis task to a great deal.
