Abstract: This paper investigates the applicability and effect of the crack-free electrical boundary conditions in piezoelectric fracture. By treating flaws in a medium as notches with a finite width, the ...

Abstract: In recent years, ferroelectromagnetic laminated composites have aroused worldwide research interest. In this paper, we developed a closed-form solution for antiplane mechanical and in-plane electric ...

Abstract: This paper considers the mechanical problem of a semi-infinite piezoelectric medium under sudden thermal load. The medium contains an electrically conducting crack perpendicular to its surface. ...
