Abstract
ABSTRACT The magnetoelectroelastic material possesses the dual feature that the application of magnetic field induces electric polarization and electric field induces magnetization. Piezoelectric-piezomagnetic materials exhibit magneto-electric effect. When magneto-electro-elastic materials are subjected to thermal flow, they can fracture prematurely due to their brittle behavior. Hence, it should be important to know the fracture behavior of magneto-electro- elastic materials. The penny-shaped crack problem in a medium possessing coupled electro-magneto-thermo-elastic is considered in this paper. It is assumed that the crack is isothermal. The analysis is an exact treatment of penny-shaped crack in a magneto-electroelastic solid subjected to uniform heat flow far away from the crack region. The governing equations of temperature, elastic displacements and electric potential as well as magnetic potential for an anisotropic magneto-electro-elastic medium are partial differential equations of second order, which are solved by means of the Hankel transform technique. Expressions for elastic displacements, thermal stresses, electric displacements and magnetic inductions are determined from the dual integral equation method. Exact thermal stress intensity factor of the problem is obtained, and the near crack tip solutions are provided.
