The Higher Order Mechanical and Electric Fields for Arbitrarily Oriented Crack with the Physical Weak-Discontinuity

Article Preview

Abstract:

The higher order crack-tip fields for anti-plane crack oblique to the interface between functionally graded piezoelectric materials (FGPMs) and homogeneous piezoelectric materials (HPMs) are presented. The crack is oriented in arbitrary direction. The crack surfaces are assumed to be electrically impermeable. The material properties of FGPMs are assumed to be linear functions with their gradient direction perpendicular to the interface. By using the eigen-expansion method, the high order crack tip stress and electric displacement fields are obtained. The analytic expressions of the stress intensity factors and the electric displacement intensity factors are derived.
