Abstract

This paper concerns itself with the fundamental solutions of the thermo-electro-elastic field in an infinite medium, weakened by a half-infinite plane crack with two identical point thermal loads applied on the crack surfaces. The corresponding mixed boundary value problem is solved by virtue of the potential theory method conjugated with the general solutions. The boundary governing equations are solved by using the results available in literature. Exact and complete three-dimensional (3D) fundamental solutions are presented in terms of elementary functions. The singularity at the crack tip is analyzed explicitly. The obtained solutions will be of high significance to the related BEM analysis.
