Abstract
In this paper we develop closed form solutions for anti-plane mechanical and in-plane electric and magnetic fields for two collinear cracks in magneto-electro-elastic layer of finite thickness under the conditions of permeable crack faces using integral transform method. The anti-plane mechanical shear or displacement and in-plane electrical and magnetic loading are applied to the top and bottom surfaces of the layer for the two cases considered. Expressions for shear stresses, electric displacements and magnetic inductions in the vicinity of the cracks are derived as well as intensity factors for two cracks in magneto-electro-elastic layer. Numerical results for stress intensity factors and energy release rate are shown graphically.
