Periodically distributed parallel cracks in a functionally graded piezoelectric (FGP) strip bonded to a FGP substrate under static electromechanical load

▸ Study of a periodic array of cracks in FGPM generated using the SIE Method. ▸ The crack surface condition is assumed to be electrically impermeable or permeable. ▸ The problem is reduced to a SIE over crack by applying the Fourier transform. ▸ The SIE is solved numerically and the effects of parameter on the SIF are studied.
