Abstract
The present paper examines the effective macroscopic behavior of a microscopically damaged interface between an infinitely long piezoelectric layer and a piezoelectric half-space under antiplane deformation. The interface is modeled as containing a periodic array of micro-cracks. The lengths and the positions of the micro-cracks on a period interval of the interface are randomly generated. The micro-statistical model is formulated in terms of hypersingular integral equations and used to investigate in detail the influences of the material constants of the piezoelectric layer and the half-space and the width of the layer on the effective properties of the interface.
