Anti-plane Yoffe-type crack in ferroelectric materials
Extending the polarization saturation (PS) model and Yoffe crack model for ferroelectric materials, a moving PS model is proposed to study the problems of crack propagation considering the electrical nonlinear...

Mechanics of advanced fiber reinforced lattice composites
Fiber reinforced lattice composites are light-weight attractive due to their high specific strength and specific stiffness. In the past 10 years, researchers developed three-dimensional (3D) lattice trusses an...

Modeling of growth stress gradient effect on the oxidation rate at high temperature
A new oxidation kinetics model is established for high-temperature oxidation. We assume that the interface reaction is fast enough and the oxidation rate is controlled by diffusion process at high temperature....

An approach for analysis of poled/depolarized piezoelectric materials with a crack
In this paper, the influence of dielectric medium inside a crack on crack growth, in an infinite poled or depolarized ceramic, has been studied by employing an electric boundary condition derived from the exac...

A Model for Predicting Effective Properties of Piezocomposites with Non-piezoelectric Inclusions
Most piezocomposites, which have been widely used in engineering, consist of piezoelectric inclusions and a non-piezoelectric matrix. Due to the limits of fabrication technology, it is hard to avoid the matrix...

On the effect of remanent polarization on electro-mechanical fields near an elliptic cavity in poled or depolarized piezoelectric ceramics
In this paper the effect of remanent polarization on electric-mechanical fields near an elliptic cavity in piezoelectric ceramics is studied. The analysis is based on the application of exact electric boundary...
