Abstract

Abstract

A static damage constitutive model was proposed on basis of the electrical enthalpy density,and then some characteristics of transversely isotropic damage were discussed.Finally,the effects of both crack depth and applied loads on damage distributions were investigated through numerically analyzing transversely isotropic damage in a four-point bending PZT-PIC151 beam with a central conducting crack'some conclusions were given:1)Crack depth and mechanical loading have great influence on both mechanical and electrical damages.With their increment,the damages at crack-tip obviously increase and their region sizes also expand.2)Effects of electrical loading on the two kinds of damages are obviously different.Electrical loading monotonously changes magnitude but region size of mechanical damage,whose effect on electrical damage is very complex.
