Anisotropic Elasticity offers for the first time a comprehensive survey of the analysis of anisotropic materials that can have up to twenty-one elastic constants. Focusing on the mathematically elegant and technically powerful Stroh formalism as a means to understanding the subject, the author tackles a broad range of key topics, including antiplane deformations, Green's functions, stress singularities in composite materials, elliptic inclusions, cracks, thermo-elasticity, and piezoelectric materials, among many others. Well written, theoretically rigorous, and practically oriented, the book will be welcomed by students and researchers alike.

A corner of bonded dissimilar materials is one of the main causes of the failure of electronic packages or MEMS structures. These materials are sometimes anisotropic materials and piezoelectric materials. To evaluate the integrity of a corner of bonded piezoelectric materials is useful for the reliability of electronic packages and MEMS. Asymptotic solutions around the interfacial corner between piezoelectric bimaterials can be obtained by the combination of the Stroh formalism and the Williams eigenfunction expansion method. Based on an extension of the Stroh formalism and the H-integral derived from Betti’s reciprocal principle for piezoelectric problems, we analyzed the stress intensity factors (SIFs) and asymptotic solutions of piezoelectric bimaterials. The eigenvalues and eigenvectors of an interfacial corner between dissimilar piezoelectric anisotropic materials are determined using the key matrix. The H-integral for piezoelectric problems is introduced to obtain the scalar coefficients, which are related to the SIFs. We propose a new definition of the SIFs of an interfacial corner for piezoelectric materials, and we demonstrated the accuracy of the SIFs by comparing the asymptotic solutions with the results obtained by the finite element method (FEM) with very fine meshes. Proposed method can analyze the stress intensity factors of a corner and a crack between dissimilar isotropic materials, anisotropic materials and anisotropic piezoelectric materials.

Optical quality zinc oxide films have been characterized using reflection electron diffraction (RED), replication electron microscopy (REM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Significant microstructural differences were observed between rf sputtered films and planar magnetron rf sputtered films. Piezoelectric materials have been attractive for applications to integrated optics since they provide an active medium for signal processing. Among the desirable physical characteristics of sputtered ZnO films used for this and related applications are a highly preferred crystallographic texture and relatively smooth surfaces. It has been found that these characteristics are very sensitive to the type and condition of the substrate and to the several sputtering parameters: target, rf power, gas composition and substrate temperature.
