FRACTURE ANALYSIS OF AN ANNULAR CRACK IN A PIEZOELECTRIC LAYER

A flat annular crack in a piezoelectric layer subjected to electroelastic loadings is investigated under electrically impermeable boundary condition on the crack surface. Using Hankel transform technique, the mixed boundary value problem is reduced to a system of singular integral equations. With the aid of Gauss-Chebyshev integration technique, the integral equations are further reduced to a system of algebraic equations. The field intensity factor and energy release rate are determined. Numerical results reveal the effects of electric loadings and crack configuration on crack propagation and growth. The results seem useful for design of the piezoelectric structures and devices of high performance.

Improved non-singular local boundary integral equation method

When the source nodes are on the global boundary in the implementation of local boundary integral equation method (LBIEM),singularities in the local boundary integrals need to be treated specially. In the current paper,local integral equations are adopted for the nodes inside the domain trod moving least square approximation (MLSA) for the nodes on the global boundary,thus singularities will not occur in the new al- gorithm.At the same time,approximation errors of boundary integrals are reduced significantly.As applications and numerical tests,Laplace equation and Helmholtz equa- tion problems are considered and excellent numerical results are obtained.Furthermore, when solving the Hehnholtz problems,the modified basis functions with wave solutions are adapted to replace the usually-used monomial basis functions.Numerical results show that this treatment is simple and effective and its application is promising in solutions for the wave propagation problem with high wave number.

Sommerfeld-type integrals for discrete diffraction problems

Three problems for a discrete analog of the Helmholtz equation are studied analytically using the plane wave decomposition and the Sommerfeld integral approach. They are: (1) the problem with a point source on an entire plane; (2) the problem of diffraction by a Dirichlet half-line; (3) the problem of diffraction by a Dirichlet right angle. It is shown that the total field can be represented as an integral of an algebraic function over a contour drawn on some manifold. The latter is a torus. As a result, explicit solutions are obtained in terms of recursive relations (for the Green’s function), algebraic functions (for the half-line problem), or elliptic functions (for the right angle problem).     

A new boundary integral equation for plane harmonic functions

In this paper, we propose a new boundary integral equation for plane harmonic functions. As a new approach, the equation is derived from the conservation integrals. Every variable in the integral equation has direct engineering interest. When this integral equation is applied to the Dirichlet problem, one will get an integral equation of the second kind, so that the algebraic equation system in the boundary element method has diagonal dominance. Finally, this equation is applied to elastic torsion problems of cylinders of different sections, and satisfactary numerical results are obtained.

Simulation of elastic wave diffraction by multiple strip-like cracks in a layered periodic composite

The problem of numerical simulation of the steady-state harmonic vibrations of a layered phononic crystal (elastic periodic composite) with a set of strip-like cracks parallel to the layer boundaries is solved, and the accompanying wave phenomena are considered. The transfer matrix method (propagator matrix method) is used to describe the incident wave field. It allows one not only to construct the wave fields but also to calculate the pass bands and band gaps and to find the localization factor. The wave field scattered by multiple defects is represented by means of an integral approach as a superposition of the fields scattered by all cracks. An integral representation in the form of a convolution of the Fourier symbols of Green’s matrices for the corresponding layered structures and a Fourier transform of the crack opening displacement vector is constructed for each of the scattered fields. The crack opening displacements are determined by the boundary integral equation method using the Bubnov-Galerkin scheme, where Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind, which take into account the behavior of the solution near the crack edges, are chosen as the projection and basis systems. The system of linear algebraic equations with a diagonal predominance of components arising when the system of integral equations is discretized has a block structure. The characteristics describing qualitatively and quantitatively the wave processes that take place under the diffraction of plane elastic waves by multiple cracks in a phononic crystal are analyzed. The resonant properties of a system of defects and the influence of the relative positions and sizes of defects in a layered phononic crystal on the resonant properties are studied. To obtain clearer results and to explain them, the energy flux vector is calculated and the energy surfaces and streamlines corresponding to them are constructed.     

Wiener-Hopf analysis of an acoustic plane wave in a trifurcated waveguide

In this paper, we have made Wiener-Hopf analysis of an acoustic plane wave by a semi-infinite hard duct that is placed symmetrically inside an infinite soft/hard duct. The method of solution is integral transform and Wiener-Hopf technique. The imposition of boundary conditions result in a 2 × 2 matrix Wiener-Hopf equation associated with a new canonical scattering problem which is solved by using the pole removal technique. In the solution, two infinite sets of unknown coefficients are involved that satisfy two infinite systems of linear algebraic equations. These systems of linear algebraic equations are solved numerically. The graphs are plotted for sundry parameters of interest. Kernel functions are also factorized.     

Diffraction of Love waves by a stress-free crack of finite width in the plane interface of a layered composite

A rigorous theory of the diffraction of Love waves by a stress-free crack of finite width in the interface of a layered composite is presented. The incident wave is taken to be either a bulk wave or a Love-wave mode. The resulting boundary-value problem for the unknown jump in the particle displacement across the crack is solved by employing the integral equation method. The unknown quantity is expanded in terms of a complete sequence of expansion functions in which each separate term satisfies the edge condition. This leads to an infinite system of linear, algebraic equations for the coefficients of the expansion functions. This system is solved numerically. The scattering matrix of the crack, which relates the amplitudes of the outgoing waves to the amplitudes of the incident waves, is computed. Several reciprocity and power-flow relations are obtained. Numerical results are presented for a range of material constants and geometrical parameters.
