Abstract

This paper studies the two-dimensional problem of an interface crack between two dissimilar electrostrictive materials under electric loads based on complex variable method. The solutions of complex potentials are derived by use of the permeable crack model. It is found that the singular structure of total stress is the same as that in traditional bi-materials, and the intensity of total stress is dependent on the electric boundary conditions adopted on the crack faces, and the Maxwell stresses on the crack faces and at infinity.
