Defects in flexoelectric solids

A solid is said to be flexoelectric when it polarizes in proportion to strain gradients. Since strain gradients are large near defects, we expect the flexoelectric effect to be prominent there and decay away at distances much larger than a flexoelectric length scale. Here, we quantify this expectation by computing displacement, stress and polarization fields near defects in flexoelectric solids. For point defects we recover some well known results from strain gradient elasticity and non-local piezoelectric theories, but with different length scales in the final expressions. For edge dislocations we show that the electric potential is a maximum in the vicinity of the dislocation core. We also estimate the polarized line charge density of an edge dislocation in an isotropic flexoelectric solid which is in agreement with some measurements in ice. We perform an asymptotic analysis of the crack tip fields in flexoelectric solids and show that our results share some features from solutions in strain gradient elasticity and piezoelectricity. We also compute the energy release rate for cracks using simple crack face boundary conditions and use them in classical criteria for crack growth to make predictions. Our analysis can serve as a starting point for more sophisticated analytic and computational treatments of defects in flexoelectric solids which are gaining increasing prominence in the field of nanoscience and nanotechnology.     

Anti-plane analysis of semi-infinite crack in piezoelectric strip

Using the complex variable function method and the technique of the conformal mapping, the fracture problem of a semi-infinite crack in a piezoelectric strip is studied under the anti-plane shear stress and the in-plane electric load. The analytic solutions of the field intensity factors and the mechanical strain energy release rate are presented under the assumption that the surface of the crack is electrically impermeable. When the height of the strip tends to infinity, the analytic solutions of an infinitely large piezoelectric solid with a semi-infinite crack are obtained. Moreover, the present results can be reduced to the well-known solutions for a purely elastic material in the absence of the electric loading. In addition, numerical examples are given to show the influences of the loaded crack length, the height of the strip, and the applied mechanical/electric loads on the mechanical strain energy release rate.

Fatigue crack growth analysis of adhesively repaired panel using perfectly and imperfectly composite patches

Fatigue crack behavior of cracked aluminum panel repaired with the imperfectly bonded composite patch is analyzed. The imperfection is in the form of debond which could result during the bonding of patch or the service life of the repaired structure. Debonds, of various sizes and at different locations with respect to the crack front, are investigated. An analytical procedure, involving two-dimensional finite element method having three layers to model cracked plate, adhesive and composite patch, is used to compute the stress intensity factors of test coupons. From the computed stress intensity factors, the crack growth rates are obtained analytically by assuming that the relationship between the stress intensity factor and the crack growth rate after repair is the same as the fatigue crack growth relationship for cracked panel material. The fatigue crack growth rates obtained experimentally and analytically are in good agreement with each other and they vary linearly with crack length inside the patch. The experimental results are bounded between its analytical counterparts at the mid-plane and free edge surfaces of the cracked panel. The present analytical procedure can, thus, be used to characterize the effects of imperfectly and perfectly bonded composite patch repairs on the durability and damage tolerance of the repaired structure.     

Exact solutions for piezoelectric screw dislocations near two asymmetrical edge cracks emanating from an elliptical hole

The interaction between piezoelectric screw dislocations and two asymmetrical interfacial cracks emanating from an elliptic hole under combined mechanical and electric load at infinity is dealt with. The closed-form solutions are derived for complex potentials and generalized stress fields. In the limiting cases, some well-known results can be obtained from the present solutions. Moreover, some new exact solutions are shown. The stress intensity factor and the energy release rate at the right tip due to a screw dislocation near the right interfacial crack are also calculated. The results show that the shielding effect of dislocation on crack expanding decreases with the increase in dislocation azimuth angle and the distance between the dislocation and the crack tip, and the repulsion acting on the dislocation from the other half plane demotes crack propagation. The increasing of the length of the other crack promotes crack growth, but the increasing of the minor semi-axis demotes it.     

Monitoring Fatigue Crack Growth in Compact Tension Specimens Using Piezoelectric Sensors

This paper aims to report the results of an experimental study on the application of piezoelectric dynamic strain sensors for crack length measurement in fracture mechanics specimens. The performance of the piezoelectric sensors was assessed through fatigue crack propagation tests in compact tension (CT) specimens. Sensors of polarized polyvinilidene fluoride polymer (PVDF) were bonded to the back face of CT specimens, in the same manner as the electrical resistance strain gages installed for crack length measurement in the back face strain technique. The results showed that, mainly due to its high sensitivity to strain, the use of piezoelectric materials as dynamic strain sensors can contribute to the experimental investigation in the field of fracture mechanics.     

Mixed mode crack initiation in piezoelectric ceramic strip

When piezoelectric ceramics are subjected to mechanical and electrical load, they can fracture prematurely due to their brittle behavior. Hence, it is important to know the electro–elastic interaction and fracture behavior of piezoelectric materials. The problem of a through crack in a piezoelectric strip of finite thickness is studied in this paper. Fourier transforms are used to reduce the problem to the solution of singular integral equations. The model technique can solve for polarization in an arbitrary direction and material anisotropy. Numerical values of the crack-tip field amplification for a piezoelectric strip under in-plane electromechanical loading are obtained. Energy density factor criterion is applied to obtain the maximum of the minimum energy density and direction of crack initiation. The influence of crack length and crack position on stress intensity and energy density factors is discussed.     

A finite element study of the near crack tip deformation of a ductile material under mixed mode loading

In ductile fracture, voids near a crack tip play an important role. From this point of view, a large deformation finite element analysis has been made to study the deformation, stress and strain, and void ratio near the crack tip under mixed mode plane strain loading conditions, employing Gurson's constitutive equation which has taken into account the effects of void nucleation and growth. The results show that: (i) one corner of the crack tip sharpens while the other corner blunts, (ii) the stress and strain distributions except for the near crack tip region, can be superimposed by normalizing distance from the crack tip by a crack tip deformation length, i.e., a steady-state solution under a mixed mode condition has been obtained, (iii) the field near a crack tip can be divided into four characteristic fields (K field, HRR field, blunted crack tip field, and damaged region), and (iv) the strain and void volume fraction become concentrated in the sharpened part of a crack tip with increasing Mode II component.     

Linear coupled bending and extension of an unbalanced bonded repair

An unbalanced repair is a composite patch bonded to one side of a cracked structure for the purpose of preventing or reducing damage growth in the substrate. A single-sided repair offsets the load path within the structure, inducing out-of-plane bending. This bending increases the stress intensity in the underlying crack and causes adhesive peel stresses and bending of the repair which can, relative to a repair that is restrained against bending, lead to early failure. In this article the authors correct the analysis of Wang and Rose [Wang, C.H., Rose, L.R.F., 1997. On the design of bonded patches for one-sided repair. In: Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Composite materials, Gold Coast, Australia, vol. 5, pp. 347–356] developed by using an energy analysis of a single-sided or unbalanced repair applied to a very long-crack, to comply with Maxwell’s reciprocal theorem and to account for transverse normal and shear stresses at the crack tip and the accompanying shear deflections. The authors then develop closed-form equations useful for bonded composite repair design and damage tolerance assessment of cracks of arbitrary length by developing a new method for interpolation between this long-crack limit and a short-crack limit based on the stress intensity and crack face displacements for an unreinforced crack. The interpolation method is then tested against an advanced line-spring model that has been created by using a 6th order generalized plane strain plate formulation in extension and a new 8th order formulation in bending, thus allowing for the inclusion of transverse shear and normal stresses. The closed-form equations are found to be accurate when compared to the line-spring model, and to provide reasonable results when compared to a three-dimensional finite element model of a bonded repair. Inaccuracies are shown to exist principally in the determination of the nominal stresses in the vicinity of the crack.

Complex variable approach in studying modified polarization saturation model in two-dimensional semipermeable piezoelectric media

A modified polarization saturation model is proposed and addressed mathematically using a complex variable approach in two-dimensional(2 D) semipermeable piezoelectric media. In this model, an existing polarization saturation(PS) model in 2D piezoelectric media is modified by considering a linearly varying saturated normal electric displacement load in place of a constant normal electric displacement load, applied on a saturated electric zone. A centre cracked infinite 2D piezoelectric domain subject to an arbitrary poling direction and in-plane electromechanical loadings is considered for the analytical and numerical studies. Here, the problem is mathematically modeled as a non-homogeneous Riemann-Hilbert problem in terms of unknown complex potential functions representing electric displacement and stress components. Having solved the Hilbert problem, the solutions to the saturated zone length, the crack opening displacement(COD), the crack opening potential(COP), and the local stress intensity factors(SIFs) are obtained in explicit forms. A numerical study is also presented for the proposed modified model, showing the effects of the saturation condition on the applied electrical loading, the saturation zone length, and the COP. The results of fracture parameters obtained from the proposed model are compared with the existing PS model subject to electrical loading, crack face conditions, and polarization angles.     

On a moving interface crack with a contact zone in a piezoelectric bimaterial

An inplane problem for a crack moving with constant subsonic speed along the interface of two piezoelectric materials is considered. A mechanically frictionless and electrically permeable contact zone is assumed at the right crack tip whilst for the open part of the crack both electrically permeable and electrically insulated conditions are considered. In the first case a moving concentrated loading is prescribed at the crack faces and in the second case an additional electrical charge at the crack faces is prescribed as well. The main attention is devoted to electrically permeable crack faces. Introducing a moving coordinate system at the leading crack tip the corresponding inhomogeneous combined Dirichlet–Riemann problem is formulated and solved exactly for this case. All electromechanical characteristics at the interface are presented in a closed form for arbitrary contact zone lengths, and further, the transcendental equation for the determination of the real contact zone length is derived. As a particular case of the obtained solution a semi-infinite crack with a contact zone is considered. The numerical analysis performed for a certain piezoelectric bimaterial showed an essential increase of the contact zone length and the associated stress intensity factor especially for the near-critical speed region. Similar investigations have been performed for an electrically insulated crack and the same behavior of the above mentioned parameters is observed.

Investigation of the dynamic behavior of two parallel symmetric cracks in piezoelectric materials use of non-local theory

In this paper, the dynamic behavior of two parallel symmetric cracks in piezoelectric materials under harmonic anti-plane shear waves is investigated by use of the non-local theory for permeable crack surface conditions. To overcome the mathematical difficulties, a one-dimensional non-local kernel is used instead of a two-dimensional one for the problem to obtain the stress occurs near the crack tips. By means of the Fourier transform, the problem can be solved with the help of two pairs of dual integral equations that the unknown variables are the jumps of the displacement along the crack surfaces. These equations are solved using the Schmidt method. Numerical examples are provided. Contrary to the previous results, it is found that no stress and electric displacement singularity is present near the crack tip. The non-local elastic solutions yield a finite hoop stress near the crack tip, thus allowing for a fracture criterion based on the maximum stress hypothesis. The finite hoop stress at the crack tip depends on the crack length, the frequency of the incident wave, the distance between two cracks and the lattice parameter of the materials, respectively. Contrary to the impermeable crack surface condition solution, it is found that the dynamic electric displacement for the permeable crack surface conditions is much smaller than the results for the impermeable crack surface conditions. The results show that the dynamic field will impede or enhance crack propagation in the piezoelectric materials at different stages of the dynamic load.

Multiplexed optical fiber sensors for air frame repair patch monitoring

This paper describes the use of two multiplexed in-line fiber etalon (ILFE) sensors for air frame repair patch monitoring. The ILFE sensors are multiplexed using a combination of coherence division and frequency division multiplexing. Cantilever beam tests are used to verify the ILFE strain sensor performance and to measure multiplexing cross talk. The multiplexed ILFE sensors are then used to monitor the load transfer in a boron/epoxy patch utilized to repair cracks that occur in aging aircraft. The experiments show a clear relationship between a normalized measure of the strain inside the repair patch and crack extension in an aluminum single-edge notch specimen.
