Abstract
The interaction of a conductive crack and an electrode at a piezoelectric bi-material interface is studied. The bimaterial is subjected to an in-plane electrical field parallel to the interface and an anti-plane mechanical loading. The problem is formulated and reduced, via the application of sectionally analytic vector functions, to a combined Dirichlet-Riemann boundary value problem. Simple analytical expressions for the stress, the electric field, and their intensity factors as well as for the crack faces' displacement jump are derived. Our numerical results illustrate the proposed approach and permit to draw some conclusions on the crack-electrode interaction.
