Abstract
To effectively reduce the field concentration around a hole or crack, an anti-plane shear problem of a nano-elliptical hole or a nano-crack pasting a reinforcement layer in a one-dimensional (1D) hexagonal piezoelectric quasicrystal (PQC) is investigated subject to remotely mechanical and electrical loadings. The surface effect and dielectric characteristics inside the hole are considered for actuality. By utilizing the technique of conformal map** and the complex variable method, the phonon stresses, phason stresses, and electric displacements in the matrix and reinforcement layer are exactly derived under both electrically permeable and impermeable boundary conditions. Three size-dependent field intensity factors near the nano-crack tip are further obtained when the nano-elliptical hole is reduced to the nano-crack. Numerical examples are illustrated to show the effects of material properties of the surface layer and reinforced layer, the aspect ratio of the hole, and the thickness of the reinforcing layer on the field concentration of the nano-elliptical hole and the field intensity factors near the nano-crack tip. The results indicate that the properties of the surface layer and reinforcement layer and the electrical boundary conditions have great effects on the field concentration of the nano-hole and nano-crack, which are useful for optimizing and designing the microdevices by PQC nanocomposites in engineering practice.
