Abstract
In this paper the two-dimensional problem of a bolt loaded-hole in an infinite piezoelectric laminate is considered in terms of the complex variable method. Firstly, an explicit form Green function for a generalized point load acted at an arbitrary point outside the hole is derived. Secondly, the Green function for a generalized point load acted at the rim of the hole, as a special case, is obtained, and then a general solution for the case of arbitrarily distributed mechanical and electric loading on the hole surface is presented based on the superposition principle. In general, the solution is in the form of series, but its novel feature is that the coefficients involved in the solution can be easily written out once the distributed loading is specified. Finally, several examples useful for engineering are given.
