Effect of Violation of the Continuity of Materials by Dispersed Microcracks on the Electroelastic Parameters of Piezoceramics

Resumo

A continual model of deformation of piezoelectric materials weakened by a system of microcracks dispersed over the bulk of the material is constructed with use of the energy method. This method is based on the assumption of equivalence of the strain energy of the cracked electroelastic medium and the strain energy of a continuum modeling the indicated medium. A generalization of the Eshelby principle is used to determine the strain energy of microinhomogeneous media with inclusions.
