Effect of rotation on plane waves in generalized thermo-microstretch elastic solid with a relaxation time

The present paper is aimed at studying the effect of rotation on the general model of the equations of generalized thermo-microstretch for a homogeneous isotropic elastic half-space solid whose surface is subjected to a Mode-I Crack problem considered. The problem is in the context of the generalized thermoelasticity Lord-?hulman??s (L-S) theory with one relaxation time, as well as the classical dynamical coupled theory (CD) The normal mode analysis is used to obtain the exact expressions for the displacement components, force stresses, temperature, couple stresses and microstress distribution. The variations of the considered variables through the horizontal distance are illustrated graphically. Comparisons are made with the results in the presence and absence of rotation and in the presence and absence of microstretch constants between the two theories.

The interaction of two parallel Mode-I limited-permeable cracks in a functionally graded piezoelectric material

In this paper, the interaction of two parallel Mode-I limited-permeable cracks in a functionally graded piezoelectric material was investigated by using the generalized Almansi's theorem. In the analysis, the electric permittivity of the air inside the crack was considered. The problem was formulated through Fourier transform into two pairs of dual integral equations, in which unknown variables are jumps of displacements across the crack surface. To solve the dual integral equations, the jumps of displacements across the crack surfaces were directly expanded as a series of Jacobi polynomials. The solution of the present paper shows that the singular stresses and the singular electric displacements at the crack tips in functionally graded piezoelectric materials carry the same forms as those in homogeneous piezoelectric materials; however, the magnitudes of intensity factors depend on the electric permittivity of the air inside the crack and the gradient parameter of functionally graded piezoelectric material properties. It was also revealed that the crack shielding effect is also present in functionally graded piezoelectric materials.     

Temperature distributions and thermal stresses in a partially filled annulus

The problem consists of determining the temperature distribution and the thermal stresses in an annulus partly filled with a cold fluid with free convection in air as the outer thermal-boundary condition. An iterative computer solution provided temperature distributions which were compared to those measured experimentally. Analytical calculations of the stresses using Fourier series expression for the temperature distribution agreed with experimental results by photothermoelasticity. The stress-intensity factors determined by photothermoelasticity for partly filled annuli with a crack extending radially 1/5 of the wall thickness were compared with approximate analytical methods.

Stress distribution about a slowly growing crack determined by photoelastic-coating method

An experimental stress-analysis technique using a birefringent coating is reported for determining the stress distribution about a slowly growing crack. The maximum error of the test method for a large strain gradient is found to be less than 10 percent. For a plate with an internal crack, the experimentally determined stress distribution compares favorably with two numerical solutions. Comparison of stresses about an internal or double-edge crack to those about a single-edge crack indicates that the isochromatics bend over to about 45 deg with the plane of the crack in the former and are inclined at about 60 deg in the latter. Also, the stresses for a single-crack tip vary as the inverse square root of the radius, while the stresses for a double-crack tip follow anr ^?1/4 law more closely.     

Some new aspects of boundary conditions at cracks in piezoelectrics

Fracture mechanical investigations of piezoelectric materials as components of smart structures have become popular in the last 30?years. In the early years of research, boundary conditions at crack faces have been adopted from pure mechanical systems under the assumption that boundaries were traction free. From the electrostatic point of view, cracks have been assumed to be either free of charge or fully permeable. Later, limitedly permeable crack boundary conditions have become popular among the community, nevertheless still assuming traction-free crack faces. Recently, the theoretical framework has been extended to include electrostatically induced mechanical tractions in crack models yielding a significant crack closure effect. However, these models are still simple, neglecting, e.g., the piezoelectric field coupling. In this work, we present an extended model for crack surface tractions yielding some interesting effects. In particular, the orientation of the electrical field with respect to the poling axis becomes important. Furthermore, applying a collinear stress parallel to the crack faces influences the Mode-I stress intensity factor and a Mode-II shear loading couples to the Mode-I SIF.     

Measurement of three-dimensional Mode-I stress intensity factor using multiple embedded grid moire technique

Multiple embedded grid moire and strain gage techniques are used to calculate the variation in Mode-I stress intensity factor throughout the thickness of ASTM E-399 standard compact tension specimens of Merlon polycarbonate. The specimen grids near the crack tip on the surface and in the interior were recorded for the unloaded condition and for various loaded states using high resolution photographic techniques. Optical processing produced moire patterns from which the change in the crack opening displacement could be determined. From the information about the crack opening displacement in the region of the crack tip, the Mode-I stress intensity factor was calculated for various interior planes and on the surface of the specimen. The stress intensity factor was found to be higher in the midplane than on the surface, and it causes crack initiation to start at the midplane.     

Electromechanical impact of a crack in a functionally graded piezoelectric medium

The Mode-I transient response of a functionally graded piezoelectric medium is solved for a through crack under the in-plane mechanical and electric impact. Integral transforms and dislocation density functions are employed to reduce the problem to singular integral equations. Numerical results display the effects of the loading combination parameter λ and the material parameter βa on the dynamic stress intensity factor and electric displacement intensity factor. The energy density factor criterion is applied to obtain the maximum of the minimum energy density factor and the direction of crack initiation.     

Photoelastic analysis of the stress field surrounding a fatigue crack

A photelastic analysis was carried out on plane polyester specimens containing a fatigue crack, in order to study the effect of plastic yielding around the crack tip on the elastic stress distribution in the vicinity of the crack. In general, results were in good agreement with values calculated for the case of a sharp-tipped crack. However, very near the crack tip, principal stresses obtained experimentally were slightly lower than calculated stresses, probably due to the bluntness of the fatigue crack. Also lines of constant stress tended to move behind the crack tip, in contrast with the calculated stresses, which occurred further forward over the field of investigation.     

Compliance rate change of tapered double cantilever beam specimen with hybrid interface bonds

This paper presents a combined numerical and experimental study of compliance rate change of Tapered Double Cantilever Beam (TDCB) specimens for Mode-I fracture of hybrid interface bonds. The easily machinable TDCB specimen, which is designed to achieve a constant rate of compliance change with respect to crack length, is developed for Mode-I fracture tests of hybrid material bonded interfaces, such as wood bonded to fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) composite. The linearity of compliance crack-length relationship of the specimen is verified by both Rayleigh–Ritz method and finite element analysis. An experimental compliance calibration program for specimens with wood–wood and FRP–FRP bonded interfaces is carried out, and a constant rate change of compliance with respect to crack length is obtained for a specific range of crack length. Fracture tests are further performed using TDCB specimens for wood–wood and wood–FRP bonded interfaces to determine the critical loads for crack initiation and crack arrest, and using the constant compliance rate change of the specimens determined by experiment or analysis, the respective critical strain energy release rates, or fracture energies, are obtained. This study indicates that the constant compliance rate change obtained from experiment or finite element analysis for linear-slope TDCB specimens can be used with confidence for fracture studies of hybrid material interface bonds.     

Transient thermal elastic fracture of a piezoelectric cylinder specimen

A finite piezoelectric cylinder with an embedded penny-shaped crack is investigated for a thermal shock load on the outer surface of the cylinder. The theory of linear electro-elasticity is applied to solve the transient temperature field and the associated thermal stresses and electrical displacements without crack. These thermal stresses and electrical displacements are added to the surfaces of the crack to form an electromechanical coupling and mixed mode boundary-value problem. The electrically permeable crack face boundary condition assumption is used, and the thermal stress intensity factor and electrical displacement intensity factor at the crack border are evaluated. The thermal shock resistance of the piezoelectric cylinder is evaluated for the analysis of piezoelectric material failure in practical engineering applications.     

The closed form solution of a Mode-I crack in the piezoelectric/piezomagnetic materials

In this paper, the behavior of a Mode-I crack in the piezoelectric/piezomagnetic materials subjected to a uniform tension loading is investigated by the generalized Almansi’s theorem. Through the Fourier transform, the problem can be solved with the help of two pairs of dual integral equations, in which the unknown variables are the jumps of the displacements across the crack surfaces. To solve the dual integral equations, the displacement jumps are directly expanded in a series of Jacobi polynomials. Then the closed form solution of this problem can be obtained.     

Photoelastic study of the stresses near a cleavage crack

Photoelastic analysis has been used to determine the stress distribution near the tip of a cleavage crack. The crack bisects a slender rectangular bar along its length, and forces are applied at one end of it tending to open it out. The region of high stresses is localized in a region of the order of the half-width of the bar in size. Very near the crack tip, the stresses decrease in proportion to the inverse square root of the distance from the crack tip. The maximum gradient of the principal tensile stress lies at an angle of 70 to 80 deg from the plane of the crack. Contour maps of the principal stresses, the 45-deg shear stress and the maximum tensile stress are presented.     

Retardation of a crack with connections between the faces using an induced thermoelastic stress field

This paper considers local temperature variations near the tip of a crack in the presence of regions in which the crack faces interact. It is assumed that these regions are adjacent to the crack tip and are comparable in size to the crack size. The problem of local temperature variations consists of delay or retardation of crack growth. For a crack with connections between the crack faces subjected to external tensile loads, an induced thermoelastic stress field, and the stresses at the connections preventing crack opening, the boundary-value problem of the equilibrium of the crack reduces to a system of nonlinear singular integrodifferential equations with a Cauchy kernel. The normal and tangential stresses at the connections are found by solving this system of equations. The stress intensity factors are calculated. The energy characteristics of cracks with tip regions are considered. The limiting equilibrium condition for cracks with tip regions is formulated using the criterion of limiting stretching of the connections.Translated from Prikladnaya Mekhanika i Tekhnicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 46, No. 1, pp. 133–143, January–February, 2005
