Electrically Nonlinear Fracture Analysis of Piezoelectric Materials Based on CED (Crack Energy Density)

Article Preview

Abstract:

An electrical nonlinear constitutive model for piezoelectric material is studied in this paper. Electric yielding criterion and yielding effect on CED are investigated. Using the mechanical part of CED as a fracture parameter, it is shown that the predicted fracture loads through FEA for compact tension specimen is in accordance with corresponding experimental results.
