Transient response of a cracked magnetoelectroelastic strip under anti-plane impact

The transient anti-plane problem of a magnetoelectroelastic strip containing a crack vertical to the boundary is considered. Singular integral equations for the impermeable crack are obtained by using Fourier and Laplace transforms. Numerical results show the effects of the relative loading parameters κD and κB, and the crack configuration on the dynamic fracture behavior. The results obtained indicate that for the impermeable crack, the electric and magnetic impacts have significant influences on the dynamic stress intensity factor and the dynamic energy density factor.
