Abstract

Three collinear impermeable interfacial cracks in bonded dissimilar transversely isotropic piezoelectric materials under electromechanical loadings is analyzed. A single antiplane mechanical and inplane electrical loads are applied at a point on crack surface. The problem is formulated by the complex function method, and reduced to the vector Hilbert problem. Solving this problem, a closed form solution for the stress intensity and electric displacement intensity factor is obtained. This solution can be used as a Green’s function for different loading conditions.
