Abstract

Thermoelectroelastic response of Two parallel axisymmetric cracks in a plate of a functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM) is studied under thermal shock loading conditions. It is assumed that the thermoelectroelastic properties of the strip vary continuously along the thickness of the strip, and that the crack faces are supposed to be insulated thermally and electrically. By using both the Laplace and Hankel transforms, the thermal and electromechanical problems are reduced to two systems of singular integral equations. The singular integral equations are solved numerically, and a numerical method is then employed to obtain the time dependent solutions by way of a Laplace inversion technique. The intensity factors versus time for various geometric parameters are calculated.
