Abstract

Analytical solutions for an anti-plane Griffith crack moving at the interface between two dissimilar magnetoelectroelastic media under the conditions of permeable crack faces are formulated using the integral transform method. The far-field anti-plane mechanical shear and in-plane electrical and magnetic loadings are applied to the magnetoelectroelastic materials. Expressions for stresses, electric displacements, and magnetic inductions in the vicinity of the crack tip are derived. Field intensity factors for magnetoelectroelastic material are obtained. The stresses, electric displacements and magnetic inductions at the crack tip show inverse square root singularities, and it is found that the dynamic stress intensity factor (DSIF), the dynamic electric displacement intensity factor (DEDIF) and the dynamic magnetic induction intensity factor (DMIIF) are independent of the remote electromagnetic loads. The moving speed of the crack has influence on the DEDIF and the DMIIF. When the crack is moving at lower speeds 0 ≤ M≤ Mc1 or higher speeds Mc2 < M < 1, the crack will propagate along its original plane, while in the range of Mc1 < M < Mc2 , the propagation of the crack possibly brings about the branch phenomena in magnetoelectroelastic media.
