In this study, an anti-plane crack in a functionally graded magnetoelectroelastic materials is investigated. It is assumed that the material properties such as elastic stiffness c44(y), piezoelectric coefficient e15(y), dielectric constant ε11(y), piezomagnetic coefficient α15(y), magnetoelectric coupling coefficient μ11(y) and magnetic permeability υ11(y) vary one-dimensionally on the ycoordinate with a series of functions f(y).An asymptotic analysis is done and the problem is solved by means of singular integral equation technique. The influence of the material inhomogeneity on crack tip stress, electric displacement and magnetic induction intensity factors are studied. The results are considered to reveal the effect of material inhomogeneity and geometry of the crack on the field intensity factors.

The second-order laminated plate theory is utilized in this work to analyze orthotropic composite plates with asymmetric delamination. First, a displacement field satisfying the system of exact kinematic conditions is presented by developing a double-plate system in the uncracked plate portion. The basic equations of linear elasticity and Hamilton’s principle are utilized to derive the system of equilibrium and governing equations. As an example, a delaminated simply supported plate is analyzed using Lévy plate formulation and the state-space model by varying the position of the delamination along the plate thickness. The displacements, strains, stresses and the J-integral are calculated by the plate theory solution and compared with those by linear finite-element calculations. The comparison of the numerical and analytical results shows that the second-order plate theory captures very well the mechanical fields. However, if the delamination is separated by only a relatively thin layer from the plate boundary surface, then the second-order plate theory approximates badly the stress resultants and so the mode-II and mode-III J-integrals and thus leads to erroneous results.
