In this paper, the scattering problems of SH waves on periodic cracks in an infinite of piezoelectric/piezomagnic composite materials bonded to an infinite of homogeneous piezoelectric materials is investigated, the Fourier transform techniques are used to reduce the problem to the solution of Hilbert singular integral equation, the latter is solved by Lobotto-Chebyshev and Gauss integral equation, at last, numerical results showed the effect of the frequency of wave, sizes and so on upon the normalized stress intensity factor.

The Fourier Transform

By combining linearly the Fourier transform and Fourier series, the stress intensity factor of a central crack in a finite rectangular plate with four hinged edges under the opening mode is expressed as the Fredholm integral equation of the second kind. The uniform loading case is considered in detail. The numerical results include the predictions by Koiter and Fichter as limiting cases.

Sh Waves

Diffraction of an antiplane shear (SH-) wave by an edge crack in a semi-infinite elastic medium is studied here. Asymptotic expansions for the scattered field both near and far from the crack are obtained for the case when the wavelength is large compared to the length of the crack. Near-field expansion is used to compute the dynamic stress-intensity factor at the tip of the crack. Also, the far-field expansion gives the scattered displacement amplitude, which is useful in ultrasonic nondestructive evaluation.

The Fourier Transform

In this paper, we continue our work on the propagation of Lamb waves in a poroelastic infinite strip containing a linear crack. In the previous work, the crack was placed horizontal to the upper and lower surfaces and moreover, there was zero pressure on the upper and lower surfaces, a physically impossible situation. In the present paper, the crack is situated perpendicular to the side and situated at the origin. A step stress is applied to the crack surface resulting in transient behavior. By using the Fourier transform and Laplace transform methods, we arrive at dual integral equations. From this formulation, we subsequently obtain, by reduction, a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind. This equation is solved numerically, and the dynamic stress intensity factor is shown graphically.

First Time

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.

Pressure Loading

The behavior of a long elastic strip with an edge crack resting on a liquid foundation is investigated. The faces of the crack are opened by an applied pressure loading. The deformation of the strip is considered within the framework of the linear theory of elasticity assuming plane-stress conditions. Fourier transform techniques are employed to obtain integral expressions for the stresses and displacements. The boundary-value problem is reduced to the solution of a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind. For the particular case of linear pressure loading, the stress-intensity factor is calculated and its dependence is shown on the depth of the crack relative to the thickness of the strip. Application of the present results to the problem of flexure of floating ice strips is discussed.
