Abstract
The non-local theory solution of a mode-I permeable crack in a piezoelectric/piezomagnetic composite material plane was given by using the generalized Almansi’s theorem and the Schmidt method in this paper. The problem was formulated through Fourier transform into two pairs of dual integral equations, in which the unknown variables are the displacement jumps across the crack surfaces. To solve the dual integral equations, the displacement jumps across the crack surfaces were directly expanded as a series of Jacobi polynomials. Numerical examples were provided to show the effects of the crack length and the lattice parameter on the stress field, the electric displacement field and the magnetic flux field near the crack tips. Unlike the classical elasticity solutions, it is found that no stress, electric displacement and magnetic flux singularities are present at the crack tips in piezoelectric/piezomagnetic composite materials. The non-local elastic solution yields a finite hoop stress at the crack tip, thus allowing us to use the maximum stress as a fracture criterion.
