Dynamic analysis of a cracked magnetoelectroelastic medium under antiplane mechanical and inplane electric and magnetic impacts

The transient analysis of a magnetoelectroelastic medium containing a crack is made under antiplane mechanical and inplane electric and magnetic impacts. The crack is assumed to penetrate through the solid along the poling direction. By using the Fourier and Laplace transforms, the associated mixed boundary value problem is reduced to a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind, which is solved numerically. By means of a numerical inversion of the Laplace transform, dynamic field intensity factors are obtained in the time domain. Numerical results are presented graphically to show the effects of the material properties and applied electric and magnetic impacts on the dynamic intensity factors of COD and stress, and dynamic energy density factors. The results indicate that except for the intensity factors of electric displacement and magnetic induction, other field intensity factors exhibit apparent transient feature. Moreover, they depend strongly on mechanical input as well as electric and magnetic impacts.
