Strip electro-mechanical yielding model for piezoelectric plate cut along two equal collinear cracks

The multiple-crack problems for piezoelectric ceramics till now have not yet address the crack opening arrest problem. The present work addresses this paucity. A 2-D strip-electro-mechanical yielding model is proposed for a transversely isotropic piezoelectric media weakened by two internal equal collinear straight cracks. The infinite boundary is prescribed with combined uniform constant in-plane mechanical and electrical loads. Developed mechanical and electric strip zones are arrested by prescribing over their rims uniform, normal, cohesive yield point stress and saturation limit electric displacement. Two cases are considered when saturation zone is bigger than developed yield zone and vice versa. Stroh formulation together with complex variable technique is employed to obtain the solution. Closed form expressions are derived for saturation zone length, yield zone length, crack opening displacement (COD), crack opening potential jump (COP) and energy release rate (ERR). An illustrative numerical study is prescribed to determine the effect of various parameters on the crack growth arrest and presented graphically. The results reveal that the model is capable of crack arrest under small-scale mechanical and electric yielding.     

A transversely isotropic medium containing a penny-shaped crack subjected to a non-uniform axisymmetric loading via an anchored smooth rigid disk

A smooth rigid circular anchor disk encapsulated by a penny-shaped crack is embedded in and unbounded transversely isotropic medium. The lamellar rigid disk exerts a nonuniform axisymmetric loading to the upper face of the crack. With the aid of an appropriate stress function and Hankel transform, the governing equations are converted to a set of triple integral equations which in turn are reduced to a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind. For some transversely isotropic materials the normalized stiffness of the system falls well outside of the envelope pertinent to isotropic media. It is shown that mode I stress intensity factor is independent of the material properties and solely depends on the ratio of the radius of the rigid disk to that of the crack; moreover, for the cases where this ratio is less than about 0.9 a simple explicit approximate expression for the mode I stress intensity factor is derived. In contrast, the normalized mode II stress intensity factor is independent of the mentioned geometrical parameters but depends on the elastic properties of the material; depending on the material properties, the normalized mode II stress intensity factor can vary between 0 to ∞ for transversely isotropic materials and between 0 to π/4 for isotropic materials.     

External circular crack under arbitrary shear loading

An exact closed form solution in terms of elementary functions has been obtained to the governing integral equation of an external circular crack in a transversely isotropic elastic body. The crack is subjected to arbitrary tangential loading applied antisymmetrically to its faces. The recently discovered method of continuity solutions was used here. The solution to the governing integral equation gives the direct relationship between the tangential displacements of the crack faces and the applied loading. Now a complete solution to the problem, with formulae for the field of all stresses and displacements, is possible.

Elastic Deformation of Dispersely Failing Unidirectionally Reinforced Composites

A phenomenological model is proposed for describing the elastic deformation of a unidirectionally reinforced composite capable of accumulating scattered microdamages during its loading. The composite is considered as a homogeneous transversely isotropic solid. Its damaged state at every point is characterized by a centrally symmetric scalar function on the unit sphere (the damage function), which is used to account for variations in the elastic properties of the material during its deformation. The damage itself depends on the history of some equivalent strain, for which four simplified variants are suggested. The relation between strains and stresses is defined in a differential form. Dependences are presented for determining all unknown constants from simple mechanical experiments. As an example, an actual unidirectionally reinforced GFRP is considered, for which the main two-dimensional sections of corresponding failure surfaces are also constructed.     

Strip-saturation model for piezoelectric plane weakened by two collinear cracks with coalesced interior zones

A strip-saturation model is proposed for a transversely isotropic piezoelectric plane weakened by two collinear equal cracks, when developed saturation zones at the interior tips of the cracks get coalesced. The plane is subjected to unidirectional, normal (to the crack length) in-plane tension and electric displacement. The developed saturation zones are arrested by distributing over their rims the normal, cohesive, unidirectional saturation-limit electrical displacement. The solution is obtained using Stroh formulation and complex variable technique. Closed form expressions are derived for crack opening displacement (COD), crack potential drop (COP), field intensity factors, length of saturation zone, energy release rate. Case study carried out for PZT-4 to show the effects of inter-crack distance on the stress intensity factor. The variations of energy release rates are plotted for PZT-4, PZT-5H and BaTiO₃ to study the effects of the geometry of the two cracks.     

Material modelling of a sheet-layered lamination stack by homogenization

In electrical machines, sheet-layered lamination stacks play an important role for the mechanical behavior of the system. Especially the interlayer between individual sheets and their interaction have a severe influence on the structure. In the context of performance and computational effort, it is desirable to avoid a full FE simulation of a lamination stack with every single sheet. Therefore, homogenization techniques are presented to identify a transversely isotropic surrogate material model, while Zero-Thickness elements are utilized during this process to cover the interplay of single sheets.

Toughening effect of ferroelectric ceramics induced by domain switching and dislocations

The multi-scale analysis of fracture toughness of ferroelectric ceramics under complicate mechanical–electrical coupling effect is carried out in this paper. The generalized stress intensity factor (SIF) arising from spontaneous strains and polarization transformation in switching domain zones is accurately obtained by using an extended Eshelby theory. Taking BaTiO₃ ferroelectric ceramic for example, it is discovered that the crack propagation can be induced by domain switching arising from negative electrical field when the crack surface is parallel to the isotropic plane, and the obtained critical electric displacement intensity factor (EDIF) approximates closely to that obtained by the Green’s function method. Additionally, as pinning dislocations and slip dislocations can strongly influence properties of ferroelectric devices and induce the property degradation, it is necessary to investigate the dislocation toughening effects on fatigue and fracture mechanisms. The results show that the dislocation shielding and anti-shielding effects on mode II SIF, mode I SIF and EDIF are obviously different when a dislocation locates at a position near the crack tip. Through the calculation of the critical applied EDIF for crack propagation by using mechanical energy release rate (MERR) theory, it is discovered that the slip angles obviously influence fracture toughness, and the mode II SIF arising from dislocation has little influence on fracture toughness, however, the mode I SIF and EDIF arising from dislocation have great influences on fracture toughness.
