Abstract
The surface fracture of a piezoelectric half-plane under transient thermal load is studied. The transient temperature and the stress distributions in an un-cracked medium are calculated. The stress and the electric displacement for un-cracked medium are used as the crack surface traction and electric charge with opposite sign to formulate the mixed boundary value problem. Results for stress and electric displacement intensity factors are computed as a function of the normalized time and the crack size. The crack propagation behavior is discussed.
