Abstract
In this chapter the electroelastic wave in piezoelectric and pyroelectric materials are discussed. In the electrically quasi-static approximation in an infinite space, there are three independent elastic waves for the piezoelectric material, and there is no independent electric wave. In the pyroelectric material a temperature wave has happened. In the reflection and transmission of waves, the inhomogeneous wave theory is effective; a quasi-surface wave is revealed in the electrically quasi-static approximation. In some particular cases the coupling between elastic equation and Maxwell electrodynamics equation needs to be studied together, and in these cases there are three elastic waves and two electric waves in the piezoelectric material. Surface acoustic waves (SAW) are extensively used in engineering. In order to improve performance of SAW devices, SAW devices may work in a biasing state. In this chapter a small perturbation superposed on finite generalized displacements is discussed in detail, and some surface waves under the biasing state are studied. The inertial entropy theory is used to derive the governing equation of the temperature wave with finite propagation velocity. The general dynamic analyses of interface cracks are given shortly, and some wave scattering problems from a crack tip are also discussed.

6.1 Electroelastic Waves in Piezoelectric Materials
6.1.1 Fundamental Equations in Electroelastic Wave
The elastic waves in isotropic and anisotropic materials and electroelastic waves in piezoelectric materials have been discussed in many literatures, such as Fischer (1955), Auld (1973), Dieulesaint and Royer (1980), and Nayfen (1995). Except Sect. 6.8 in this book, we discuss some linear problems in piezoelectric and pyroelectric materials under the condition of quasi-static electric field. In the linear problem the Maxwell stress is not considered. The constitutive equations are shown in Eq. (3.2), and the generalized momentum equation without generalized body forces in terms of generalized displacements under electrically static condition is
Equation (6.1) gives the elastic wave equation. The electric displacement does not have its own independent wave, but it propagates following the elastic waves through the constitutive equation.
In this book we only discuss the plane wave, which can be expressed in two forms.
For the generalized displacements \( {\boldsymbol{ U}}={{[{u_{1 }},{u_{2 }},{u_{3 }},{u_{4 }}]}^{\mathrm{ T}}},\quad {u_{4 }}={\varphi} \) we have
where \( {{\boldsymbol{ U}}_0} \) is the wave polarization vector or the amplitude vector and the ratio of its components represents the particle displacement direction, \( \omega \) is the circular frequency, \( c \) is the phase velocity, \( \boldsymbol{ k} \) is the wave vector, \( \boldsymbol{ L} \) is the slowness vector, and \( F(y) \) is a certain function of \( y \). For an ideal piezoelectric material, the energy is not dissipative, so wave vector \( \mathbf{k}=k\mathbf{n} \), where \( k={{{2\pi }} \left/ {\lambda } \right.} \) is the wave number, \( \lambda \) is the wave length, \( \boldsymbol{ n} \) is the wave propagation direction Eq. (6.2) yields
where \( {F}^{\prime}(y)={{{\partial F}} \left/ {{\partial y}} \right.} \). Substituting Eq. (6.3) into (6.1) yields the Christoffel equation:
or
In order for \( {{\boldsymbol{ U}}_0} \) to have nontrivial solution, \( \boldsymbol{\varLambda} \) must satisfy the following secular equation:
where \( \boldsymbol{\varGamma} \) is symmetric and called Christoffel tensor. \( \rho {c^2} \) is the eigenvalue, and \( {{\boldsymbol{ U}}_0} \) is the corresponding eigenvector. Eliminating \( {\varphi_0} \) from Eq. (6.4) yields
From Eq. (6.7) it is known that \( \rho {c^2} \) has three roots: \( \rho c_1^2,\rho c_2^2,\rho c_3^2 \). Corresponding to each \( \rho c_i^2 \) there is an eigenvector \( \boldsymbol{ u}_0^{(i) } \) with one undetermined component. Sometimes for convenience we let the undetermined component equal to 1 or adopt the normalized eigenvector \( \bar{\boldsymbol{ u}}_0^{(i)}\boldsymbol{ u}_0^{(j) }=\mathbf{I} \). Equation (6.7) yields
From Eq. (6.8) it is known that \( \rho {c^2} \) is real, because
Because \( \rho {c^2} \) is real, there are three orthogonal plane waves. In general \( \boldsymbol{ u}_0^{(i) } \) is not parallel or perpendicular to the wave propagation direction \( \boldsymbol{ n} \). The wave \( \boldsymbol{ u}_0^{(1) } \) closest to \( \boldsymbol{ n} \) is called the quasi-longitudinal wave, which has the largest phase velocity \( {{c}_1} \), while the other two waves \( \boldsymbol{ u}_0^{(2) },\boldsymbol{ u}_0^{(3) } \) are located on the plane close to the plane perpendicular to \( \boldsymbol{ n} \) and called the quasi-shear waves with slower velocity \( {{c}_2} \) and \( {{c}_3}<{{c}_2} \).
6.1.2 Energy Propagation
According to Eqs. (1.57) and (1.58), the energy equation can be reduced to
where \( {{\mathfrak{A}}_{\mathrm{ t}}} \) is the total energy density, \( {{\dot{\mathfrak{A}}}_{\mathrm{ t}}} \) is the rate of the total energy, \( \int\nolimits_a {\;{P_j}} {n_j}\mathrm{ d}a \) represents the rate of the traversing external energy through the boundary and \( \boldsymbol{ P} \) is the Poynting vector. In Eq. (6.9) the heat flow is not considered. If \( {\mathfrak{A}} \) is expressed with \( {\varepsilon} \) and E, Eq. (6.9) becomes
Define the energy transport velocity \( {{\boldsymbol{ V}}^{\mathrm{ e}}} \) as
Equation (6.4) yields
Equations (6.4), (6.10), and (6.12) yield
Substitution of Eq. (6.13) into Eq. (6.11) yields
For the normalized displacement vector \( ({u_{0m }}{u_{0m }}=1) \), Eq. (6.14a) becomes
where \( {{\boldsymbol{ V}}^{\mathrm{ e}}} \) gives the energy transport direction, the direction of the acoustic ray. The projection of \( {{\boldsymbol{ V}}^{\mathrm{ e}}} \) on \( \boldsymbol{ n} \) is equal to the phase velocity \( c \), so \( \left|{\boldsymbol{ V}}^{\mathrm{ e}}\right|\geq c \).
6.1.3 Group Velocity
Usually for a monochromatic wave, Eq. (6.2) is written in a complex number form:
A general plane wave is dealt with the superposition method. For a chromatic dispersion wave, the wave velocity is dependent to the frequency, and the group velocity is defined as
Multiplying Eq. (6.7) by \( {k^2} \) yields
It is found that the relation between \( c \) and \( \left( {{n_j},e_i^{*}} \right) \) is identical with the relation between \( \omega =kc \) and \( \left( {k{n_j},ke_i^{*}} \right) \), so
where Eq. (6.12) has been used. Therefore, the energy transport velocity is identical with the group velocity for a non-dissipative plane wave, but for a dissipative plane wave, they may be different.
6.1.4 Characteristic Surfaces
In the illustration of the phenomena of an electroelastic wave propagation, the characteristic surfaces, including the velocity surface, slowness surface, and wave surface, are very useful.
1. Velocity surface When the propagation direction is varied, the locus of the ends of the phase velocity vector \( \boldsymbol{ c}=c\boldsymbol{ n} \) forms a velocity surface. In a piezoelectric material there are three different velocities, so there are three velocity surfaces.
2. Slowness surface The end of the slowness vector \( \boldsymbol{ L}={{\boldsymbol{ n}} \left/ {c} \right.} \) draws a slowness surface. \( \boldsymbol{ L} \) is parallel to \( \boldsymbol{ c} \) and \( Lc=1,L=\left| \boldsymbol{ L} \right| \). The slowness surface is important in dealing with reflection and transmission problem in crystals due to similarity with the index surface in optics. The energy transport velocity is always perpendicular to the slowness surface (Fig. 6.1a). In fact we have
3. Wave surface The wave surface is the locus of the ends of the energy transport velocity. The propagation direction of a plane wave is perpendicular to the wave surface (Fig. 6.1b). In fact according to Eqs. (6.14b) and (6.19) from \( {{\boldsymbol{ V}}^{\mathrm{ e}}}\cdot \boldsymbol{ L}=1,{{\boldsymbol{ V}}^{\mathrm{ e}}}\cdot \mathrm{ d}\boldsymbol{ L}=0 \), it can be derived as
6.1.5 Reflection and Transmission of the Plane Wave in Piezoelectric Materials
In order to save the size of this chapter, the wave propagation in an infinite space and the reflection and transmission problem of the plane wave in piezoelectric materials will be discussed with the thermo-electro-elastic wave in pyroelectric materials together.
6.2 Surface Wave
6.2.1 Surface Waves in Structures
Surface waves have been studied a long time (Gulyaev 1969; Auld 1973; Dieulesaint and Royer 1980; Nayfen 1995). Surface acoustic waves (SAW) including Rayleigh wave, Love wave, Lamb wave, and B-G wave are extensively used in transducers, actuators, filters, delay lines, oscillators, signal processing, acoustic imaging, mobile communication, nondestructive evaluation, biomedical ultrasound, and flow noise. Surface acoustic wave device includes a piezoelectric substrate, at least one interdigital transducer (IDT) disposed on the piezoelectric substrate, an input end and an output end connected to the IDT. The energy of the surface acoustic wave is mainly concentrated near the surface.
1. Semi-infinite media In 1885 Rayleigh found a surface wave at the surface of a semi-infinite medium, which is called Rayleigh wave. Rayleigh wave is a complex wave and attenuates along the normal direction of the surface. Its penetration depth is \( 2\lambda \). In the isotropic media it is constituted of a longitudinal wave (L-wave) and a shear wave (S-wave) with \( {\pi \left/ {2} \right.} \) phase shift. The transverse surface wave with polarization parallel to the surface cannot happen in an elastic media, but it can happen in a semi-infinite piezoelectric material and called B-G wave (Bleustein 1968; Biryukov et al. 1995), whose penetration depth is about \( 100\lambda \) larger than that in Rayleigh wave.
2. Bi-semi-infinite media In a bi-semi-infinite medium, Rayleigh wave can propagate on both sides of the interface and this surface wave is called Stoneley wave.
3. Infinite plate For a plate bounded by two parallel infinite planes, when the plate thickness is of the order of the wave length, one gets Lamb waves. Lamb wave possesses longitudinal and shear components, so it can be either symmetric or antisymmetric.
4. Layer structures Typically a layer structure is constituted of two or multiple layers of different materials, especially thin films deposited on a thick substrate. When the shear wave velocity of the film is larger than that in the substrate, the Love transverse shear surface wave will be happened.
6.2.2 General Procedure for Solving Surface Wave Problem
Let coordinates \( o{x_i} \) with its origin be at the free surface in a semi-infinite space. A surface wave propagates in \( ({x_1},{x_2}) \) plane; \( {x_1} \) is perpendicular to the free surface (Fig. 6.2). The generalized displacements decrease exponentially in direction \( {x_1} \), i.e.,
where \( b> 0 \) is the unknown attenuated coefficient. Equation (6.21) can also be written as
where \( {n_1} \) is not the directional cosine, but an unknown related to the attenuated coefficient.
Substituting Eq. (6.22) into Eq. (6.1) yields Eq. (6.4) and the corresponding eigen-equation (6.6), but in the surface wave case, \( c \) and \( {n_1} \) are unknown. Usually let \( c \) be a parameter and solve \( {n_1} \) from the eigen-equation. Because the eigen-equation is an eight-order algebraic equation with real coefficients, \( {n_1} \) has 4 pairs of complex roots. But there are 4 roots appropriate because \( \operatorname{Im}\ {n_1}> 0 \) is required. Corresponding 4 eigenvalues \( n_1^{(r) },r=1,2,3,4 \), there are 4 group eigenvectors \( u_{0i}^{(r)}, \varphi_0^{(r) } \). The general solution is
Unknowns \( c \) and \( {A_r} \) in Eq. (6.23) are determined by the boundary conditions on the free surface. The boundary conditions on a free surface is
Let the environment of the piezoelectric material be air. In air \( {\nabla^2}{\varphi^c}=0 \), we can assume
There are two kinds of the electric boundary conditions:
Combining Eqs. (6.24) and (6.26a) or (6.26b), five homogeneous equations with five unknowns \( {A_r},\varphi_0^c \) are obtained. In order for \( {A_r},\varphi_0^c \) to have nontrivial solutions, the determinant of coefficients before them must be zero. From this condition the wave velocity \( c \) and \( {A_r},\varphi_0^c \) are obtained. Usually only one \( c \) can satisfy condition \( \operatorname{Im}{n_1}> 0 \).
The coupling coefficient \( {k_{\mathrm{ e}}} \) is defined as (Laurent et al. 2000)
where \( {c_{\mathrm{ f}}} \) is the wave velocity under electrically open case and \( {c_{\mathrm{ s}}} \) is the wave velocity under electrically shorted case. \( {U_{\mathrm{ m}\mathrm{ e}}},{U_{\mathrm{ m}}},{U_{\mathrm{ e}}} \) are the mutual electromechanical coupling energy, mechanical energy, and electric energy, respectively.
6.2.3 Surface Waves in a Semi-infinite Piezoelectric Material
Equation (6.23) has three displacement waves and an electric potential. It is a general 3D piezoelectric Rayleigh wave denoted by \( {{\bar{R}}_3} \). In the material principle coordinate system, the number of the independent material constants will be obviously reduced by crystal symmetry. So the following simpler surface waves will happen:
1. \( {\varGamma_{13 }}={\varGamma_{23 }}=e_1^{*}=e_2^{*}=0 \), and Eq. (6.4) or (6.6) splits to the following two equations:
where the first equation represents the pure 2D elastic Rayleigh wave denoted by \( {R_2} \) and the second equation represents the transverse piezoelectric wave denoted by B-G wave. According to \( {\varGamma_{13 }}={\varGamma_{23 }}=e_1^{*}=e_2^{*}=0 \), some relations between material constants can be derived.
2. \( {\varGamma_{13 }}={\varGamma_{23 }}=e_3^{*}=0 \), and Eq. (6.4) or (6.6) splits to the following two equations:
where the first equation represents the pure elastic transverse shear wave and the second equation represents the 2D piezoelectric Rayleigh wave denoted by \( {{\bar{R}}_2} \). According to \( {\varGamma_{13 }}={\varGamma_{23 }}=e_3^{*}=0 \), some relations between material constants can be derived.
Li et al. (2005b) and Li et al. (2005a) adopted the modified Mindlin (1968) polarization gradient theory to discuss the surface wave and showed that the gradient effect can make the surface wave dispersive which is different with the classical linear theory. This phenomenon may be meaningful in high-frequency short surface wave. In the later sections we mainly discuss the surface wave with initial stress or biasing electric field and a few problems about wave scattering from a crack.
6.3 Fundamental Theory of Layered Structure with Generalized Biasing Stresses
6.3.1 A Small Perturbation Superposed on Finite Generalized Displacements
In order to improve performance or select the most suitable operating conditions of SAW devices, such as selectivity of filters, stability of oscillators, and temperature compensation, the generalized biasing displacements or stresses are applied to the SAW devices to establish a biasing state. At the same time because of the material behaviors between the layer and substrate are different, the initial stresses and initial strains in the layer are produced unavoidably during manufacture process. Sometimes the initial stress is great with the magnitude of 1 GPa. The presence of initial stress causes changes in the speed of surface acoustic wave, frequency shift, controlling the selectivity of a filter and temperature compensation of devices, etc. A middle layer in the multilayered structure can be used to adjust the range of phase velocity of SAW and to improve its property (Khuri-Yakub and Kino 1974; Assour et al. 2000).
The biasing stress and electric fields usually are large and assumed known, but the external signal or perturbation is small. So the problem is a small perturbation superposed on finite generalized displacements (Tiersten 1978; Sinha et al. 1985; Su et al. 2005). The fundamental theory of finite deformation can be seen in many books (Ogden 1984; Kuang 2002). Some fundamental formulas can be found in Sect. 1.3.4. Take the natural configuration without generalized stress as the reference configuration. In this theoretical part the notations shown in Sect. 1.3.4 are adopted. The same coordinate system in the current and initial configurations is taken, i.e., \( {x_I}={x_i} \), so that for the case without differential symbol, we have \( {{\bar{\sigma}}_{IJ }}={{\bar{\sigma}}_{ij }} \), but the differentiation with the capital or small letter subscript is different. Let \( {{\bar{\boldsymbol{\sigma}}}^0},{{\bar{\boldsymbol{\varepsilon}}}^0},{{\bar{\boldsymbol{ D}}}^0},{{\bar{\boldsymbol{ E}}}^0},{{\boldsymbol{ u}}^0},{\varphi^0},{{\bar{\boldsymbol{ f}}}^0},{{\bar{\boldsymbol{ T}}}^0},\bar{\rho}_{\mathrm{ e}}^0,{{\bar{\sigma}}^{*0 }} \) be variables in the biasing state. The small perturbation variables in the reference configuration are denoted with \( \bar{\boldsymbol{\sigma}}, \bar{\boldsymbol{\varepsilon}}, \bar{\boldsymbol{ D}}, \bar{\boldsymbol{ E}}, \boldsymbol{ u},\varphi, \bar{\boldsymbol{ f}}, \bar{\boldsymbol{ T}}, {{\bar{\rho}}_{\mathrm{ e}}},{{\bar{\sigma}}^{*}} \) (Fig. 6.3), where \( \bar{\boldsymbol{\sigma}} \) is the Kirchhoff stress and \( \bar{\boldsymbol{\varepsilon}} \) is the Green strain. The current total variables described in the reference configuration are
where
Because the biasing state is an equilibrium state, so
Subtracting the first equation in Eq. (6.34) from Eq. (6.31) and ignoring small terms in high order, such as \( {u_{m,K }}{u_{m,L }} \), we find
Subtracting the second equation in Eq. (6.34) from Eq. (6.32) yields
From Eq. (1.45) we can derive
The change of the normal of the boundary can only be obtained after solving the problem. But usually the difference between \( \bar{n}_k^t \) and \( \bar{n}_k^0 \) is small and let \( \bar{n}_k^t=\bar{n}_k^0 \) to simplify the boundary conditions.
Sometimes the three-order coefficients in the constitutive equation are needed. Let
Similarly for the biasing state, we have
Subtracting Eq. (6.38) from (6.37) and neglecting the small terms in higher order, such as \( {u_{M,K }}{u_{M,L }},{u_{P,N }^{0}}{u_{K,M }^{0}}{u_{K,L }} \), then we get the results that are expressed in terms of generalized displacements:
where
Substitution of Eq. (6.39) into Eqs. (6.35) and (6.36) finally yields
where \( C_{KlPJ}^{*},e_{KPJ}^{*} \), etc. are effective material constants and
where the capital letter subscript \( P \) takes the value 1, 2, 3, 4. Equation (6.41) can also be rewritten as
When \( \boldsymbol{ u},\varphi \) are solved, \( \bar{\boldsymbol{\sigma}}, \bar{\boldsymbol{ D}} \) is obtained; then from Eq. (1.45) the generalized Cauchy stresses \( \boldsymbol{\sigma}, \boldsymbol{ D} \) can be obtained.
6.3.2 Simplifications of the Governing Equations for Some Cases
1. Initial stress configuration taken as reference configuration If we use the configuration with initial stress as the reference configuration, then \( {{\boldsymbol{ u}}^0},{\varphi^0} \) are not needed or let \( {{\boldsymbol{ u}}^0}=\mathbf{0},{\varphi^0}=0 \) and \( \bar{\sigma}_{Kl}^{*}={{\bar{\sigma}}_{KM }}={\sigma_{kl }},{{\bar{D}}_K}={D_k} \), so formulas are much simpler. But the material coefficients must take the “tangent modulus,” or the constitutive equations are measured at the state with given generalized biasing displacements and stresses. The total generalized stress and displacements are the sum of the initial values and the perturbation values.
2. Small initial generalized displacements If the initial generalized displacements and stresses are also small, i.e., \( {{\boldsymbol{ u}}^0}+\boldsymbol{ u},{\varphi^0}+\varphi \) are small compared with \( 1 \), the terms containing them can be neglected, so all generalized stress \( {{\bar{\boldsymbol{\sigma}}}^{*}}=\boldsymbol{\sigma}, \bar{\boldsymbol{ D}} =\boldsymbol{ D} \).
6.4 Love Wave in ZnO/SiO2/Si Structure with Initial Stresses
6.4.1 Transfer Matrix Method
Figure 6.4 shows a three-layer structure constituted of the substrate \( \mathrm{ Si} \), the first layer \( \mathrm{ Si}{{\mathrm{ O}}_2} \) of thickness \( {h_1} \) and the second layer \( \mathrm{ ZnO} \) of thickness \( {h_2} \) and \( {h_1}+{h_2}=h \). The origin of the global coordinate system is located at interface of the substrate and first layer. The top surface of the layer \( {x_1}=-h \) is free of stress and the environment is air. Experiments show that the distribution of initial stresses along the depth \( {x_1} \) in the layers is shown in Fig. 6.4. The thickness of the substrate is much larger than that of layers and can be treated as a half-space. The initial stresses in the substrate are negligible. In order to obtain more exact solution, the first layer is further divided into \( 1\sim m \) sublayers, and the second layer is divided into \( m+1\sim N \) sublayers. The substrate is denoted by layer \( 0 \) and the air is denoted by layer \( N+1 \) (Fig. 6.5).
For a multilayer structure the transfer matrix method is a useful technique (Thomson 1950; Stewart and Yong 1994; Liu et al. 2003b; Su et al. 2005). The basis of the transfer matrix method is that for any sublayer \( k \) to establish, a transfer matrix maps the generalized stresses and displacements from its lower surface to upper surface. Successive application of the transfer method through sublayer \( 0 \) to \( N+1 \) and invoking corresponding interface continuity conditions leads to a set of equations relating to the boundary conditions on the free surface. Combining the conditions at infinity, we can get enough equations to solve the problem. The state space approach with appropriate selected variables is a convenient method to establish the transfer matrix. Here \( {u_i},\varphi, {\sigma_{i1 }},{D_1} \) are used as state variables. For convenience in the following part, the subscripts all adopt the small letters except the capital letter \( P \) which takes the value 1, 2, 3, 4. It is noted that in this part the differentiation with a small letter is still considered in the reference configuration. According to the first equation in Eq. (6.41), in each sublayer we have
Assuming the incident wave is located in the plane \( {x_2}{x_3} \), the solution of the generalized displacement \( {U_P}\;(P=1,2,3,4) \) is
Substitution of Eqs. (6.45) and (6.42) into Eq. (6.44) yields
Usually \( \bar{\sigma}_{11}^0,\bar{\sigma}_{12}^0,\bar{\sigma}_{13}^0 \) are small and can be dropped. Let
Equation (6.46) can be rewritten as
The second equation in Eq. (6.41) and Eq. (6.42) can also be expressed as
Introduce (in Voigt notation)
where \( {\sigma_n}(n=1,2,\ldots,6) \) represents \( {\sigma_{11 }},{\sigma_{22 }},{\sigma_{33 }},{\sigma_{32 }},{\sigma_{31 }},{\sigma_{12 }} \), respectively, and let \( {{\hat{\sigma}}_{i1 }}={T_1} \), \( {{\hat{\sigma}}_{i2 }}={T_6} \), and \( {{\hat{\sigma}}_{i3 }}={T_5} \). Introduce an eight-dimensional vector \( {{\upsilon}_m} \):
where \( {A_{1m }},{A_{2m }},{A_{3m }} \) are the amplitudes of \( {u_1},{u_2},{u_3} \), respectively; \( {A_{4m }} \) is the amplitude of \( \varphi \); \( {T_{1m }},{T_{6m }},{T_{5m }} \) are the amplitudes of \( {\sigma_{11 }},{\sigma_{21 }},{\sigma_{31 }} \), respectively; and \( {T_{7m }} \) is the amplitude of \( {D_1} \). Using Eqs. (6.48a) and (6.48b) for any sublayer \( k \), the eight-dimensional state equation with unknown vector \( {{\upsilon}_m} \) is
where \( \boldsymbol{ B}_m^{-1 }({x_1}){{\boldsymbol{ F}}_m}({x_1}) \) is the state matrix of the sublayer \( k \) and
and
The solution of Eq. (6.51) is
where \( {b_{jm }} \) and \( {h_{jm }} \) are the eigenvalue and eigenvector of the state matrix, respectively, and \( {a_{jm }} \) is an undetermined constant in the sublayer \( m \). The generalized stresses and displacements at the bottom of the structure can be related to those at its top through the transfer matrix \( {{\boldsymbol{ P}}_m}({x_{1m }}-{d_m},{x_{1m }}) \):
Equations (6.54) and (6.55) yield
where \( {x_{1m }} \) is the coordinate at the bottom surface of the sublayer \( m \) and \( {d_m} \) is its thickness. Using the basic relations of the transfer matrix, it is found
This leads to
where \( {{\upsilon}_N}(-h) \) and \( {{\upsilon}_1}(0) \) are the state vectors at the upper and lower surfaces of the structure, respectively.
6.4.2 Love Wave in Zno/SiO2/Si Structure with Initial Stress
Figure 6.4 shows a \( {{\mathrm{ ZnO}} \left/ {{{{{\mathrm{ Si}{{\mathrm{ O}}_2}}} \left/ {\mathrm{ Si}} \right.}}} \right.} \) multilayer structure. \( \mathrm{ Si}{{\mathrm{ O}}_2} \) and \( \mathrm{ Si} \) are isotropic elastic materials, and \( \mathrm{ ZnO} \) is a transverse isotropic piezoelectric material with poling direction along \( {x_3} \). In a transversely isotropic piezoelectric material, the number of material constants is only ten: \( {C_{11 }}={C_{22 }},{C_{12 }},{C_{13 }}={C_{23 }},{C_{33 }},{C_{44 }}={C_{55 }},{C_{66 }}={{{({C_{11 }}-{C_{12 }})}} \left/ {2} \right.} \), \( {e_{31 }}={e_{32 }},{e_{15 }}={e_{24 }},{e_{33 }} \), \( {\epsilon_{11 }}={\epsilon_{22 }},{\epsilon_{33 }} \) Let the biasing stresses be \( \sigma_{33}^0({x_1}) \) and \( \sigma_{22}^0({x_1}) \). Other stress components and the biasing potential \( {\varphi^0} \) is assumed to be zero. Love wave is a transverse shear wave, so only \( {u_3}({x_1},{x_2},t) \) and \( \varphi ({x_1},{x_2},t) \) are not zero. Let Love wave propagate along the positive direction of \( {x_2} \), so only \( {k_2}=k \) is not zero. In this case Eqs. (6.50), (6.52), and (6.53) are simplified to
where effective material constants can be calculated from Eq. (6.42). For \( \mathrm{ ZnO} \) and \( \mathrm{ Si}{{\mathrm{ O}}_2} \), \( C_{45}=C_{54}=e_{14}=e_{25}=\epsilon_{2}=\epsilon_{1}=0 \), so for small initial stresses it yields
For the \( 6mm \)-type ceramics \( {C_{44 }}={C_{55 }},{e_{15 }}={e_{24 }},{\epsilon_{11 }}={\epsilon_{22 }} \), so the differences between \( c_{44}^{*} \) and \( c_{55}^{*} \), \( e_{15}^{*} \) and \( e_{24}^{*} \), and \( \epsilon_{11}^{*} \) and \( \epsilon_{22}^{*} \) can be neglected. In this case the eigenvalues of \( \boldsymbol{ B}_m^{-1 }({x_1}){{\boldsymbol{ F}}_m}({x_1}) \) are obtained as
where \( c \) is the phase velocity. Correspondingly the eigenvector matrix \( {{\boldsymbol{ Q}}_{{_m}}} \) is
Substitution of Eqs. (6.61) and (6.62) into Eq. (6.54) yields
According to Eq. (6.56) the transfer matrix of the sublayer \( m \) is
Because the Love wave is confined to layers and near the substrate surface, the generalized displacements are attenuated in the substrate. In the substrate we have
\( {{\boldsymbol{ Q}}_0} \) can be obtained by substituting material constants of the substrate into Eq. (6.62). At \( {x_1}=0 \) we have
The electric potential \( {\varphi_{N+1 }} \) and the electric displacement \( {D_{{1\left( {N+1} \right)}}} \) in the air \( {x_1}<-h \) can be expressed as
where \( {\epsilon_0} \) is the permittivity of air and \( {a_{N+1 }} \) is an undetermined constant.
The mechanical boundary conditions are
The electric boundary conditions between air and \( \mathrm{ ZnO} \) are divided into two kinds: electrically open and electrically shorted, i.e.,
The electric boundary conditions between the substrate and \( \mathrm{ Si}{{\mathrm{ O}}_2} \) are
The continuity condition at \( {x_1}=0 \) expressed by the state vector \( {\upsilon}({x_1}) \) is
From Eqs. (6.58), (6.66), and (6.71), the continuity condition of \( {\upsilon}({x_1}) \) at \( {x_1}=-h \) is
According to the boundary conditions at \( x_1=-h,u_{3(N+1)} \) or \( u_{3air} \) is not needed, from the electrically open case we get
or
In order to obtain nontrivial solutions for \( a_{20},a_{40},a_{N+1} \) the coefficient determinant in Eq. (6.74) should be vanished. So the equation to determine the phase velocity \({c_{\mathrm{ f}}} \) in electrically open case is
Similarly for the electrically shorted case, the equation to determine the phase velocity \( {c_{\mathrm{ s}}} \) is
There are many papers to discuss on the problem of Love wave, such as Danoyan and Pilliposian (2007) and Liu et al. (2001). Du et al. (2008) discussed the propagation of Love waves in prestressed piezoelectric layered structures loaded with viscous liquid.
6.4.3 The Distribution of the Initial Stresses
Because layers are very thin, the mechanical stresses have only occurred in layers, i.e., at \( {x_1}=-{h_1},\bar{\sigma}_{i1}^0=0;\;{x_1}=0,\bar{\sigma}_{ij}^0=0 \). The continuity conditions of the initial stresses at \( {x_1}=-{h_1} \) are that \( u_2^0 \) and \( u_3^0 \) are continuous, or
Using the constitutive equation from Eq. (6.77), we can derive the following relation:
where \( {C_{ij }} \) is the elastic constant of \( \mathrm{ ZnO} \) and \( Y,\nu \) is the elastic constant of \( \mathrm{ Si}{{\mathrm{ O}}_2} \). So at \( {x_1}=-{h_1} \), the initial stresses in \( \mathrm{ ZnO} \) and \( \mathrm{ Si}{{\mathrm{ O}}_2} \) must satisfy the following relation:
Similarly we can get \( \bar{\sigma}_{3\mathrm{ ZnO}}^0 \), but it is not needed. It can be assumed that \( \sigma_{{2\mathrm{ Si}{{\mathrm{ O}}_2}}}^0,\sigma_{{2\mathrm{ ZnO}}}^0 \) are varied exponentially (Fig. 6.4), i.e.,
It is also noted that the generalized displacements and stresses at the initial state should be obtained directly by experiments or calculated by the updated Lagrange method which needs multiple steps from the natural state to initial state. The updated Lagrange method and other methods in plasticity can be utilized to the problems discussed here.
6.4.4 Numerical Example
In the paper of Su et al. (2005), they assumed \( \sigma_{{3\mathrm{ Si}{{\mathrm{ O}}_2}}}^0=L\sigma_{{2\mathrm{ Si}{{\mathrm{ O}}_2}}}^0 \) to simplify calculation, where \( L \) is a proportional coefficient. They adopted the following material constants:
Figure 6.6 shows the change of the phase velocity \( {c_{{\mathrm{ f}0}}} \) of the Love wave with \( kh \) under the case that: electrically open, without initial stresses, \( {h_2}={10^{-5 }}\mathrm{ m} \) and different \( {h_1} \). It is seen that for all \( {h_1} \) when \( kh\to 0 \), \( {c_{{\mathrm{ f}0}}}\to {c_{\mathrm{ Si}}} \); \( {c_{{\mathrm{ f}0}}} \) decreases with increasing \( kh \). When \( kh\to \infty \) \( {c_{{\mathrm{ f}0}}}\to {c_{\mathrm{ ZnO}}} \) if \( {h_1}<{h_2} \) and \( {h_1}\sim {h_2} \); or \( {c_{{\mathrm{ f}0}}}\to {c_{{\mathrm{ Si}{{\mathrm{ O}}_2}}}} \) if \( {h_1}\gg {h_2} \). \( {c_{{\mathrm{ f}0}}} \) is in the following range:
Figure 6.7 shows the change of \( {{{\varDelta c}} \left/ {{{c_{{\mathrm{ f}0}}}}} \right.} \) with \( kh \) under the case that: electrically open case, \( \bar{\sigma}_{2\mathrm{ ZnO}}^0=200\mathrm{ MPa} \), \( L=1 \), \( {h_2}={10^{-5 }}\mathrm{ m} \) and different \( {h_1} \). Here \( \varDelta c={c_{\mathrm{ f}}}-{c_{{\mathrm{ f}0}}} \) and \( {c_{\mathrm{ f}}} \) is the Love wave velocity with initial stress. From Figs. 6.6 and 6.7, it is seen that the middle layer has significant role.
6.5 Other Surface Waves
6.5.1 B-G Wave in a Prestressed Piezoelectric Structure
Because the penetration depth of the \( \mathrm{ B}\text{--}\mathrm{ G} \) wave is about 10–100 \( {\lambda} \), the application of \( \mathrm{ B}\text{--}\mathrm{ G} \) wave is limited in microwave techniques. However, the application of layered structures can significantly reduce the penetration depth. Jin et al. (2001) and Liu et al. (2003a) discussed the prestressed layered piezoelectric structures. The layer and substrate are all made by piezoelectric materials, and the poling directions of the layer and substrate are along the positive and negative axes \( {x_3} \), respectively (see Fig. 6.2). The \( \mathrm{ B}\text{--}\mathrm{ G} \) wave in layered structure can also be considered as a kind of the Love wave. The basic equations have been discussed in Sect. 6.3 and governing equations can be seen in Eq. (6.43). In \( \mathrm{ B}\text{--}\mathrm{ G} \) wave only \( {u_3}({x_1},{x_2},t) \) and \( \varphi ({x_1},{x_2},t) \) are not zero. Neglecting terms containing \( u_{K,L}^0u_{M,N}^0 \), Eq. (6.43) is reduced to
The variables in the substrate are denoted by a superscript “M.” Because in the substrate \( {x_1}> 0 \) there is no initial stress, the governing equations are
The boundary and the interface continuity conditions are
Let \( \mathrm{ B}\text{-}\mathrm{ G} \) wave propagate along positive \( {x_2} \) direction. The generalized displacements in layer are assumed
Substitution of Eq. (6.85) into Eq. (6.82) yields
In order for \( {\alpha_3},{\alpha_4} \) to have nontrivial solutions, their coefficient determinate must be zero, or
where \( {A_i} \) is determined by Eq. (6.86) and omitted here. Equation (6.87) has 4 eigenvalues \( {b_p}(p=1,2,3,4) \) and a pair of eigenvectors \( {\alpha_3},{\alpha_4} \) corresponding to each \( {b_p} \) and
Substituting Eq. (6.88) into Eq. (6.85) yields the generalized displacements in layer
Similar to the layer and noting \( {u_3},\varphi \to 0,\;\mathrm{ when}\;{x_1}\to \infty \), the generalized displacements in the substrate only have two eigenvalues \( b_q^{\mathrm{ M}}(q=1,2) \) with positive image parts, i.e.,
From \( \varphi_{,11}^c+\varphi_{,22}^c=0 \) and the connective conditions at \( {x_1}=-h \) in Eq. (6.84), it is assumed
Substituting Eqs. (6.89), (6.90), and (6.91) into Eq. (6.84) yields six homogeneous equations for vector \( \boldsymbol{\alpha} \):
In the electrically open case at \( {x_1}=-h \) for \( j=1,2,3,4 \), we have
For \( j=5,6 \) we have
The equation to determine the phase velocity of \( \mathrm{ B}\text{-}\mathrm{ G} \) wave under electrically open case is
For the electrically shorted case at \( {x_1}=-h \), \( {P_{2j }} \) in Eq. (6.93a) should be replaced by
In the paper of Liu et al. (2003a), they found that the penetration depth is dramatically reduced in a \( \mathrm{ LiNb}{{\mathrm{ O}}_3} \) layer piezoelectric material and the effect of the third-order piezoelectric coefficients (Cho and Yamanouchi 1987) is meaningful for the low-frequency case. Figure 6.8 shows the dispersion relations for the fundamental mode of \( \mathrm{ B}\text{--}\mathrm{ G} \) surface wave in the absence of initial stress, where \( {c_0}={c_{{\mathrm{ f}0}}} \) for electrically open case and \( {c_0}={c_{{\mathrm{ s}0}}} \) for electrically shorted case. It is found that for a given value of \( {h \left/ {\lambda } \right.} \), the phase velocity of the electrically open case is greater than that of electrically shorted case, i.e., \( {c_{{\mathrm{ f}0}}}>{c_{{\mathrm{ s}0}}} \). In the low-frequency limit, \( {h \left/ {\lambda } \right.}\to 0 \), the wave mode tends to the B-G surface wave in a piezoelectric half-space, i.e., \( {c_{{\mathrm{ f}0}}}\to 4.538{{\mathrm{ km}} \left/ {\mathrm{ s}} \right.},{c_{{\mathrm{ s}0}}}\to 4.203{{\mathrm{ km}} \left/ {\mathrm{ s}} \right.} \). Figure 6.9 shows the variations of \( {{{\varDelta {c_{\mathrm{ f}}}}} \left/ {{{c_{{\mathrm{ f}0}}}}} \right.} \) and \( {{{\varDelta {c_{\mathrm{ s}}}}} \left/ {{{c_{{\mathrm{ s}0}}}}} \right.} \) with \( {h \left/ {\lambda } \right.} \) under the initial stress \( \bar{\sigma}_{22}^0=40\mathrm{ MPa} \), where \( {c_{\mathrm{ f}}},{c_{\mathrm{ s}}} \) are the phase velocity in layer with initial stress and \( \varDelta {c_{\mathrm{ f}}}={c_{\mathrm{ f}}}-{c_{{\mathrm{ f}0}}} \) or \( \varDelta {c_{\mathrm{ s}}}={c_{\mathrm{ s}}}-{c_{{\mathrm{ s}0}}} \).
6.5.2 Rayleigh Wave in a Prestressed Structure
Discuss an approximately transversely isotropic \( \mathrm{ LiNb}{{\mathrm{ O}}_3} \) piezoelectric film of thickness \( h \) polarized \( {x_1} \)-axis deposited on a sapphire substrate (see Fig. 6.2). Usually the thickness of the layer is some micrometers, so the substrate can be considered as semi-infinite. The basic equation Eq. (6.43) in the layer is reduced to
In the following the superscript * on material coefficients will be omitted. In the substrate the basic equation is
The boundary and the interface continuity conditions are
Let the wave propagate along \( {x_2} \) and take the form
where \( {B_i} \) is the amplitude of ith component. Substitution of Eq. (6.99) into Eq. (6.96) yields
In order to get nontrivial solution of \( \boldsymbol{ B} \), its coefficient determinate need be zero, i.e.,
where \( {A_i} \) is determined by Eq. (6.100). Equation (6.101) is the eighth-order equation of \( b \) with the Rayleigh wave velocity \( c \) as a parameter. From Eq. (6.101) eight \( {b_q} \) can be obtained and for each \( {b_q} \) an eigenvector with four components can be obtained. For convenience we let
After \( {B_{iq }} \) is obtained the generalized displacements in layer can be expressed as
Analogously the generalized displacements in substrate can be expressed as
Analogous to Eq. (6.91) for the electrically open case, the electric potential in the air is
Substitution of Eqs. (6.103), (6.104), and (6.105) into Eq. (6.98) yields
where for \( j,k={1,2,3};\ n=1-8 \) we have
and for \( j,k={1,2,3};\ n=9-12 \) we have
The phase velocity \( c \) of the Rayleigh wave \( {{\bar{R}}_3} \) should satisfy Eqs. (6.100) and (6.106) simultaneously. From this condition \( c \) can be obtained by iteration method.
For the electrically shorted case, the fourth row in \( \left[ {{P_{mn }}} \right] \) should be changed to
Liu et al. (2003d) discussed the phase velocity and the electromechanical coupling coefficient, \( {k^2}={{{2({c_{\mathrm{ f}}}-{c_{\mathrm{ s}}})}} \left/ {{{c_{\mathrm{ f}}}}} \right.} \). The results show that for a given value of \( {h \left/ {\lambda } \right.} \), the phase velocity of the electrically open case is greater than that of the shorted case. The phase velocity approaches the Rayleigh wave velocity of the substrate when \( {h \left/ {\lambda } \right.}\to 0 \) and tends to the Rayleigh wave velocity of the layer for large \( {h \left/ {\lambda } \right.}> 1.5 \).
Babich and Lukyanov (1998) discussed the surface wave in a curved layered structure. Liu et al. (2003c, d) discussed the Love wave in a layered structure with functionally graded isotropic substrate.
6.5.3 Lamb Waves in Piezoelectric Plate with Biasing Electric Field
Lamb waves were researched a long time (Joshi and Jin 1991), it shows a large sensitivity to mass loading, and the zero-order antisymmetric mode can be applied in contact with a liquid with a small attenuation (Laurent et al. 2000). Figure 6.10 shows a thin infinite transversely isotropic piezoelectric plate of thickness \( h \) polarized \( {x_3} \)-axis. Liu et al. (2002a, b) assumed that a small biasing voltage \( V \) is applied to the electrode deposited on the upper surface and the electrode on the lower surface is grounded. The deference between the natural and initial configurations is neglected in their analysis. The electric field \( {{\boldsymbol{ E}}^0}=({V \left/ {h} \right.}){{\mathbf{i}}_3} \), \( {{\mathbf{i}}_3} \) is the unit vector on the axis \( {x_3} \). According to the external loading, the generalized stresses can be assumed as constants. In this section the Voigt notations are used. The static electric force acted on the upper and lower surfaces of the piezoelectric material produced by the electric charges on the electrodes is neglected. The boundary conditions are assumed
A transversely isotropic material polarized \( {x_3} \)-axis only has ten independent constants. From Eq. (6.109) and the constitutive equation (3.2), it is obtained
According to Eq. (6.41) for the small perturbation in a 2D problem, we have
And the constitutive equation
Substitution of Eqs. (6.110) and (6.112) into Eq. (6.111) yields
It is assumed that the solutions of the antisymmetric Lamb waves are (Liu et al. 2002a)
and assumed that the solutions of the symmetric Lamb waves are (Liu et al. 2002b)
where \( {B_i} \) is the undetermined constant. Substitution of Eqs. (6.114) and (6.115) into Eq. (6.113) yields
where the upper and lower symbols in “\( \pm \)” and “\( \mp \)” are used for the antisymmetric and symmetric solutions, respectively. In order to get nontrivial solutions of \( {B_1},{B_2},{B_3} \), their coefficient determinant must be zero. So we get a third-order equation of \( {b^2} \) containing phase velocity \( c \) as an unknown parameter:
Solving Eq. (6.117) we get three solutions of \( {b^2} \) and select appreciate one \( {b_l}\left( {l=1,2,3} \right) \) in \( {b^2} \). Substituting \( {b_l}(l=1,2,3) \) into Eq. (6.114) or (6.115) yields the amplitude ratios \( {{{{B_{1l }}}} \left/ {{{B_{3l }}}} \right.},\;{{{{B_{2l }}}} \left/ {{{B_{3l }}}} \right.},l=1,2,3 \). Substituting \( {b_l},{{{{B_{1l }}}} \left/ {{{B_{3l }}}} \right.},{{{{B_{2l }}}} \left/ {{{B_{3l }}}} \right.}(l=1,2,3) \) back into Eq. (6.114) or (6.115) and then into boundary conditions, we can finally get three homogeneous equations of \( {B_{31 }},{B_{32 }},{B_{33 }} \). Let the determinant of the coefficients of \( {B_{31 }},{B_{32 }},{B_{33 }} \) equal to zero; the equation to determine \( c \) is obtained. The details can be seen in the original papers.
Sharma and Pal (2004) also discussed propagation of Lamb waves in a transversely isotropic piezo-thermo-elastic plate. Li et al. (2005b) discussed the spatial dispersion of short surface acoustic waves in piezoelectric ceramics.
6.6 Waves in Pyroelectrics
6.6.1 Generalized Thermodynamics of Temperature Wave in Thermoelasticity
The infinite wave speed problem (Banerjee and Bao 1974) and the Landau second sound speed in liquid helium and in some solids at low temperatures (Landau 1941; Jackson and Walker 1971) induced the development of the generalized heat, thermoelastic, and thermo-piezoelectric wave theories. The temperature wave from heat pulses at low temperature propagates with a finite phase velocity. The main simpler generalized theories with a finite velocity are Kaliski (1965)-Lord-Shulman (K-L-S) theory (1967), Green-Lindsay (G-L) theory (1972), and inertial entropy theory (Kuang 2009). The temperature wave equation can also be established on the extended irreversible thermodynamics and can be found in Joseph and Preziosi’s papers (1989, 1990). In the K-L-S theory for an isotropic thermoelastic material, the following Cattaneo-Vernotte heat conduction formula (Vernotte 1958; Cattaneo 1958) was used to replace the Fourier’s law, but the classical entropy equation and the Helmholtz free energy are kept, i.e.,
where \( {\tau_0} \) represents the relaxation time and is a material parameter. From Eq. (6.118) we find
Then neglecting many small terms, finally, they got
where \( {\alpha_{ij }}=\alpha {\delta_{ij }} \). The second equation in Eq. (6.119) is the momentum equation.
The G-L theory (1972) was based on modifying the Clausius-Duhemin inequality and the energy equation; They used a new temperature function \( {\phi(T,\dot T)}\) instead of the usual temperature T. i.e.,
Substituting Eq. (6.120) into the momentum and energy equations, after complex manipulation and linearization and neglecting small terms finally get (here we take the form in small deformation for an isotropic material)
where \( {\tau_0},{\tau_1}\), and \( \gamma \) are material constants.
The derivation of the governing equations is very complex when using K-L-S or G-L theory, but the derivation is very simple when the inertial entropy theory is used as shown at the next section.
6.6.2 The Inertial Entropy Theory of Temperature Wave
In Sect. 1.7.2 the inertial entropy theory (Kuang 2009) is introduced. Equation (1.84) gives
The Fourier’s law given in Eqs. (1.71) or (5.107) is
The constitutive (or state) and evolution equations given in (5.106) are
where \( {\alpha_{ij }} \) is the stress-temperature coefficient. Equations (6.122), (6.123), and (6.124) yield
When material coefficients are all constants and the variation of temperature is not large from (6.125) we have
Equation (6.126) is a temperature wave equation with finite phase velocity.
The generalized momentum equations are
It is obvious that the experimental studies for the inertial entropy theories are very important.
6.6.3 The Homogeneous Thermo-electro-elastic Wave in Pyroelectric Material
Under the quasi-static electric approximation, the governing equations of the waves in pyroelectric material in the inertial entropy theory are shown in Eqs. (6.126) and (6.125). Like Eq. (6.119), using Eq. (6.118) in a piezoelectric material, the extended K-L-S equation can also be obtained. When \( f_j^{\mathrm{ m}},f_j^{\mathrm{ e}},{\rho_{\mathrm{ e}}},r \) are not considered and assuming the variation of temperature is small (i.e., let \( T\approx {T_0} \)), the inertial entropy theory, the K-L-S theory can be expressed in a unified equation system:
When \( {\xi_1}={\xi_2}=0,{\xi_0}={\rho_{{\mathrm{ s}0}}} \), Eq. (6.128) represents the inertial entropy theory and \( {\xi_1}={\xi_2}={\xi_0}={\tau_0} \) represents the K-L-S theory. In Sect. 1.6.2 we have pointed out that there are some questions in the K-L-S theory. Here we can also show that (1) from Eq. (6.118) we get \( T\dot{s}-{\tau_0}T\ddot{s}={\lambda_{ij }}{T_{,ji }}+(\dot{r}+{\tau_0}\ddot{r}) \), so it is difficult to consider that \( s \) is a state function. (2) It is difficult to physically explain why Eq. (6.128) also has the inertial terms \( {\tau_0}{T_0}(-{\tau_i}{{\ddot{\varphi}}_{,i }},{\alpha_{ij }}{{\ddot{u}}_{i,j }}) \). (3) The Fourier thermal conductive equation is substantially an irreversible phenomenon, which is in the same level with the mechanical viscous effect, as seen from the equation of the entropy production. So the viscous effect in elasticity produced by the Cattaneo-Vernotte heat conductive equation is a second effect.
For a plane wave Eq. (6.2) becomes
or
where \( U,\varPhi, \mathtt{\varTheta} \) are the amplitudes of the displacement, electric potential, and temperature, respectively. In general \( k \) is a complex number:
where \( c \) is the phase velocity and \( \beta \) is the attenuation coefficient. Substituting Eq. (6.129) into (6.128) and dropping the common factor \( \exp \left[ {\mathrm{ i}(k{n_m}{x_m}-\omega t)} \right] \) we obtain the Christoffel equation:
or
where
with
In order to get the nontrivial solution of \( \boldsymbol{ U} \), it is necessary that
Equation (6.136) is called the secular equation and can be expanded to
where \( {F_i}(\omega, \boldsymbol{ n}) \) is known functions of \( (\omega, \boldsymbol{ n}) \). So one \( {k^2} \) is zero in Eq. (6.136), i.e., the wave velocity of the electric potential is infinite or the electric potential does not have its own independent wave mode. From Eq. (6.136) we can solve four independent eigenvalues or wave velocity, and for each wave velocity an independent mode from Eq. (6.133) is obtained. There are total four independent modes: the quasi-longitudinal (QL) wave with highest wave velocity, fast quasi-transverse wave (FT), slow quasi-transverse wave (ST), and a temperature wave (T).
From Eq. (6.132) we can also eliminate \( \boldsymbol{\varPhi} \) to get equations with independent variables \( {U_k},\vartheta \).
6.6.4 An Example
Now we discuss the character surfaces for material \( \mathrm{ BaTi}{{\mathrm{ O}}_3} \) under \( \omega =2\pi \times {10^6}{{\mathrm{ s}}^{-1 }},\;\gamma =0 \). Material constants of \( \mathrm{ BaTi}{{\mathrm{ O}}_3} \) with poling axis \( {x_3} \) are
where \( \alpha_{11}^{\varepsilon },\;\alpha_{33}^{\varepsilon } \) are the usual thermal expansion coefficients. Figure 6.11 \( (a) \) and \( (b) \) gives the velocity surfaces of the elastic waves and temperature wave in the isotropic plane \( ({x_1},{x_2}) \), respectively; Fig. 6.12 \( (a) \) and \( (b) \) gives the velocity surfaces of the elastic waves and temperature wave in the anisotropic plane \( ({x_1},{x_3}) \), respectively; Fig. 6.13 \( (a) \) and \( (b) \) gives the slowness surfaces of the elastic waves and temperature wave in the anisotropic plane \( ({x_1},{x_3}) \), respectively. The dotted lines in the Fig. 6.13 represent the velocity or slowness surfaces for purely elastic material. The numerical results show that the attenuation of the temperature wave is large, but for the elastic waves, they are small and may be negative for certain \( {\rho_{{\mathrm{ s}0}}} \). The results of Ezzat et al. (2002) and Yuan and Kuang (2008) also showed that the temperature wave can enforce the elastic wave when the temperature is decreased. It means that the term containing \( {\rho_{{\mathrm{ s}0}}} \) enforces the elastic wave, or when the temperature decreased, the released inertial heat is partly transformed to the elastic wave. It may be a restriction of \( {\rho_{{\mathrm{ s}0}}} \). This phenomenon has been discussed in Sect. 1.7.5.
6.6.5 Inhomogeneous Wave
In the framework of the inhomogeneous wave theory generally, the wave vector is \( \boldsymbol{ k}=\boldsymbol{ P}+\mathrm{ i}\boldsymbol{ A} \), where \( \boldsymbol{ P} \) and \( \boldsymbol{ A} \) are two real vectors (Buchen 1971; Borcherdt 1973). The vector \( \boldsymbol{ n}={{\boldsymbol{ P}} \left/ {{\left| \boldsymbol{ P} \right|}} \right.} \) represents the wave propagation direction which is perpendicular to the wave surface with equal phase, and \( \boldsymbol{ m}={{\boldsymbol{ A}} \left/ {{\left| \boldsymbol{ A} \right|}} \right.} \) represents the maximum attenuation direction which is perpendicular to the equal-amplitude surface. The angle \( \gamma \) between \( \boldsymbol{ n} \) and \( \boldsymbol{ m} \) is called the attenuation angle (Fig. 6.14). The surface wave may be considered as an inhomogeneous wave with \( \gamma ={\pi \left/ {2} \right.} \) and P is parallel to the surface. In general case how to determine \( \gamma \) is not very clear (Krebes 1983). For an inhomogeneous plane wave, we have (Yuan and Kuang 2010)
Let \( \theta \) denote the angle between \( \boldsymbol{ n} \) and the ordinate, so
For an inhomogeneous wave we need four variables \( (P,A,\theta, \gamma ) \) to describe it, but for a homogeneous wave we only need three variables \( (P,A,\theta ) \) due to \( \boldsymbol{ n}=\boldsymbol{ m},\gamma =0 \) and \( {k_1} = (P+\mathrm{ i}A)\sin \theta,{k_2}=(P+\mathrm{ i}A)\cos \theta \). So k can be expressed by one complex number.
An inhomogeneous plane wave can be written as
Substituting Eq. (6.139) into (6.129) and dropping the common factor we get the Christoffel equation:
where
The secular equation corresponding to Eq. (6.140) is
Substituting \( {k_j}=P{n_j}+iA{m_j} \) and decomposing \( \left| \boldsymbol{\varLambda} \right|=0 \) into real and imaginary parts we get two coupling real equations of \( (P,A,\theta, \gamma ) \):
Giving \( (\theta, \gamma ) \), \( (P,A) \) can be obtained from Eq. (6.142), so \( ({k_1},{k_2}) \). It means that \( {k_1} \) and \( {k_2} \) are obtained simultaneously. In order to \( (P,A) \) are not negative it needs \( -{\pi \left/ {2} \right.}<\gamma <{\pi \left/ {2} \right.} \).
Similar to the homogeneous wave, Eq. (6.142) only has four independent eigenvalues \( {{\boldsymbol{ k}}_i}={P_i}\boldsymbol{ n}+\mathrm{ i}{A_i}\boldsymbol{ m}\;(i=1,2,3,4) \) corresponding four phase velocities:
Corresponding each complex \( {{\boldsymbol{ k}}_i} \), from Eq. (6.142) we can get the amplitude vectors or eigenvectors \( {{\boldsymbol{ U}}_i} \). In each \( {{\boldsymbol{ U}}_i} \), \( {U_{1i }}:{U_{2i }}:{U_{3i }}:{{\mathtt{\varPhi}}_i}(=U_{4i}):{{\mathtt{\varTheta}}_i}(=U_{5i}) \) is determined, i.e., only one component, say, \( {U_{j1}}={\beta_j} \), is undetermined. So there are only four undetermined amplitude components, and the general solution of the wave propagation problem is
where \( {\beta_j}(i=1,2,3,4) \) is an undetermined coefficient.
The numerical calculations for \( \mathrm{ BaTi}{{\mathrm{ O}}_3} \) show that the effect of \( \gamma \) on the velocity surfaces of elastic waves is limited and there is a certain effect on the velocity surfaces of the temperature. There are certain effects on the attenuation coefficients of all waves.
6.7 Reflection and Transmission of Waves in Pyroelectric and Piezoelectric Materials
6.7.1 General Theory
Consider the problem of two semi-infinite pyroelectric materials I and II bounded on the interface \( {x_2}=0 \) subjected to an inhomogeneous harmonic incident wave of frequency \( \omega \) with an incident angle \( \theta \) from the lower semi-plane I, \( {x_2}< 0 \), ( Fig. 6.15) (Kuang and Yuan 2011; Zhou et al. 2012). In Fig. 6.15 only one reflection wave and one transmission wave are drawn for clarity. The mechanical, electrical, and thermal continuity conditions on the interface are (MCC), (ECC), and (TCC), respectively
where \( n_i^{\mathrm{ I}\mathrm{ I}}=-n_i^{\mathrm{ I}} \). There are totally ten continuity conditions on the interface.
Let an incident wave with a wave vector \( {{\boldsymbol{ k}}^{(0) }} \) be in the semi-infinite plane I, \( {x_2}\leq 0 \), and corresponding displacement, electric potential, and relative temperature can be expressed by
where \( U_k^{(0) },{{\mathtt{\varPhi}}^{(0) }},{{\mathtt{\varTheta}}^{(0) }} \) and \( k_m^{(0) } \) are all known. The reflection wave in the semi-infinite plane I, \( {x_2}\leq 0 \), can be expressed by
and the transmission wave in the semi-infinite plane II, \( {x_2}\geq 0 \), can be expressed by
In Eqs. (6.147) and (6.148), \( N \) is the number of the independent waves. It is obvious that
When waves propagate in the \( {x_1}\text{-}{x_2} \) plane, the following synchronism condition should be held:
Decomposing Eq. (6.150) into real and imaginary parts yields
From Eqs. (6.137) and (6.151), we can get the generalized Snell’s law from the real part:
From Eq. (6.152), \( \theta^{(r,j) },\theta^{(t,j) },\gamma^{(r,j) },\gamma^{(t,j) } \) can be solved when \( {\theta^{(0) }},{\gamma^{(0) }},{c^{(0) }} \) and \( {c^{(r,j) }},{c^{(t,j) }} \) are known. In the reflection and transmission wave case, \( k_1^{(0) }=k_1^{(r,j) }=k_1^{(t,j) } \) are known and unknowns are \( k_2^{(r,j) },k_2^{(t,j) } \) in Eq. (6.142). In this case except four bulk waves as that in the infinite space, a new kind of wave will be revealed. The numerical examples show that this new wave propagates almost parallel to the interface, but the maximum attenuation direction is almost perpendicular to the interface. So we call it quasi-surface wave or QS wave. The similar waves called evanescent wave in the previous literatures for piezoelectric by Auld (1973) and Every and Neiman (1992) had been discussed. Sharma et al. (2008) discussed also the wave reflection and transmission in pyroelectric materials.
Substituting Eqs. (6.146), (6.147), (6.148), and (6.149) into Eq. (6.145), the ten boundary conditions on the interface can be expressed as
Therefore, in the reflection and transmission waves, there are ten complex unknown amplitude coefficients \( \beta_j^{(r) } \) and \( \beta_j^{(t) } \) (j = 1 − 5) with total ten complex interface continuity conditions. This shows that the reflection and transmission waves are solvable.
The general expression of the wave energy flow and its ratio of the reflection and transmission are defined as
where the symbol <> expresses the average value over one period of a physical variable and \( \dot{W}_2^{(j) } \) is the energy flow component corresponding to \( {\beta^{(j) }} \) along \( {x_2} \) direction.
Omitting the terms related to temperature, the governing equations of the piezoelectric materials are obtained.
The above theory of acoustic wave in piezoelectric materials is based on the quasi-electrostatic description, because the sound speed \( {c_{\mathrm{ a}}} \) is several orders smaller than the electromagnetic wave speed \( {c_{\mathrm{ e}}} \). The precision of this approximation is very high. The electromagnetic corrections to the surface acoustic speeds only have the order \( {{({{{{c_{\mathrm{ a}}}}} \left/ {{{c_{\mathrm{ e}}}}} \right.})}^2}\approx {10^{-8 }} \). The exceptional case is the incidence under small angle of the order of \( {{{{c_{\mathrm{ a}}}}} \left/ {{{c_{\mathrm{ e}}}}} \right.} \) to the normal of the interface, due to the generalized Snell’s law or the synchronism condition (Darinskii et al. 2008). In this case the incident elastic wave can be converted into the electromagnetic waves. However, the magnitudes of the tangential components of the wave amplitudes are in order of \( {{{{c_{\mathrm{ a}}}}} \left/ {{{c_{\mathrm{ e}}}}} \right.} \), so very small due to the small incident angle.
6.7.2 Numerical Example
As an example, we discuss 2D propagation waves in PZT-6B/BaTiO3 material combination, which are transversely isotropic materials with poling axis \( {x_3} \) (Zhou et al. 2012). In 2D case there is only one transverse wave QT.
The material data for BaTiO3 are given in 6.6.4. The material data for PZT-6B are given as
Figure 6.16 shows the variations of the amplitude coefficients \( \left| {{\beta_i}} \right| \) and the energy flow ratios \( {e^{(j) }} \) of the reflection and transmission waves with the incident angle \( \theta \) of the QL incident wave from PZT-6B to BaTiO3. Figure 6.16a gives the amplitude coefficients for reflected waves Ref-QL and Ref-QT and transmitted wave Tran-QL and Tran-QT. It is found that when the incident angle \( \theta \) exceeds the critical angle \( {\theta_{\mathrm{ cr}}}({\theta_{\mathrm{ cr}}}\approx 61.2^{\circ}) \), the Tran-QL wave becomes evanescent propagating along the interface. Figure 6.16b shows the energy flow ratios normal to the interface for the Ref-QL, Ref-QT, Tran-QL, and Tran-QT. It is found that the sum of Ref-QL and Tran-QL waves is far larger than the sum of Ref-QT and Tran-QT waves. Figure 6.16c gives the amplitude coefficients for the quasi-surface (QS) waves. The amplitude coefficients of QS waves are much less than those of other elastic waves. Figure 6.16d shows the amplitude coefficients of the reflected and transmitted temperature T waves. The amplitude coefficients of temperature waves are far less than those of other waves discussed in the example. The energy flow normal to the interface for the temperature wave is also very little and dissipates quickly.
Kuang and Yuan (2011) discussed the 2D reflection problem from the interface of \( {{{\mathrm{ BiTi}{{\mathrm{ O}}_3}}} \left/ {\mathrm{ vaccum}} \right.} \) with the boundary conditions
In this case there are no transmitted waves. The quasi-surface wave becomes surface wave. They found that the wave velocity of the quasi-surface wave is significantly dependent to the incident angle due to the generalized Snell’s law. When the incident wave is the elastic wave, the reflected wave is mainly the elastic wave, the quasi-surface wave is weaker, and the reflected temperature wave is very limited. The effect of the attenuation angle \( \gamma \) is very limited.
6.7.3 Viscous Effect
The experimental results showed that the viscous relaxation times are about \( {10^{-6 }}-{10^{-8 }}\mathrm{ s} \) for various metals under shock-loading conditions (Mineev and Mineev 1997; Ma et al. 2011). Ezzat et al. (2002) discussed the generalized thermo-viscoelasticity with G-L theory. Lionetto et al. (2005) studied the boundary value problem of one-dimensional semi-infinite piezoelectric rod subjected to a sudden heat based on K-L-S theory. They found that the thermal relaxation and the viscous effects were evident in short time for the thermal shock in viscoelastic-piezoelectric material. Kuang (2011) and Kuang and Zhou (2012) introduced material constant \( {\beta_{ijkl }} \) to discuss tentatively the viscoelastic effect in the inertial entropy theory. The constitutive equation (6.124) is changed to
The governing equation (6.128) becomes
Figure 6.17 gives the phase diagram of attenuation coefficient of QL wave for various \( {\rho_{{\mathrm{ s}0}}},{\tau_0} \) for a plane wave with \( \gamma =0 \) for various \( \omega \), where \( {\beta_{ijkl }}={\tau_0}{C_{ijkl }} \) is assumed. In Fig. 6.17 the attenuation coefficient is positive if the region is above the lines and negative if the region is below the lines. In the region with negative attenuation coefficient, there is an enlarged factor before the elastic wave amplitudes. However, it is not to say that on the propagation path the elastic waves are enhanced, because the elastic wave amplitudes are proportional to the temperature wave amplitude (see Sect. 1.7.6).
It is found that if \( {\tau_0}=0 \), negative damping occurred, but for \( {\rho_{{\mathrm{ s}0}}}=0 \) there is no damping region. How to explain and use the negative damping it is also a meaningful problem.
In the shock problem it is better to take the integral-type viscoelastic constitutive equation (Kuang 2002; Ezzat et al. 2002).
6.7.4 Waves in Piezoelectric Materials
The governing equations in the piezoelectric materials can be obtained by omitting the terms containing temperature in the governing equations of the pyroelectric materials. For the plane wave from Eq. (6.132) the Christoffel equation is
or
where \( \mathtt{\varGamma}_{ij}^{*},e_j^{*},{\epsilon^{*}} \) are shown in Eq. (6.135). Other theories can be discussed similarly.
Pang et al. (2008) discussed the reflection of plane waves at the interface between piezoelectric piezomagnetic media.
6.8 Coupling Problem of Elastic and Electromagnetic Waves in Piezoelectric Material
6.8.1 Governing Equations in Pyroelectric Materials
In this section we shall discuss the coupling of elastic wave with electromagnetic wave shortly. It is assumed that there are no body force and body electric charge in the material. According to Eq. (1.4) the independent Maxwell equations for the case without electric current are
It is assumed that the material is nonmagnetic, so the constitutive equations are
Equations (6.159) and (6.160) yield the electromagnetic wave equation
where \( {\varpi_{ijk }} \) is the permutation notation. The momentum and thermal equations are
The continuity conditions on an interface for a wave reflection and transmission problem are
Equations (6.161), (6.162), and (6.163) are the electroelastic coupling governing equations in pyroelectric materials.
6.8.2 Coupling Problem of Plane Wave in Piezoelectric Materials
Kyame (1949), Auld (1973), and Every and Neiman (1992) discussed the electroelastic coupling waves in piezoelectric materials. From Eqs. (6.160), (6.161), and (6.162), the governing equations in piezoelectric materials with isotropic magnetic behavior are
In the coupling problem it is convenient to use the velocity instead of displacement. For a plane wave it is assumed
Substituting Eq. (6.165) into Eq. (6.164) yields the Christoffel equation
or
where
The corresponding secular equation \( \det \boldsymbol{\varLambda} =0 \) is a \( 6\times 6 \) determinant of the coefficients including \( {V_m} \) and \( {E_{0m }} \). Every and Neiman (1992) discussed the approximate solution.
Now discuss a plane wave propagating along \( {x_1} \) axis (so \( {k_1}=k,{k_2}={k_3}=0 \)) in a transversely isotropic piezoelectric material with \( {x_3} \) polarization. In a transversely isotropic piezoelectric material, the material constants in Voigt notations are \( {e_{31 }}={e_{32 }},{e_{15 }}={e_{24 }},{e_{33 }},{\epsilon_{11 }}={\epsilon_{22 }},{\epsilon_{33 }} \), \( {C_{11 }}={C_{22 }},{C_{12 }},{C_{13 }}={C_{23 }},{C_{33 }},{C_{44 }}={C_{55 }},{C_{66 }}={{{({C_{11 }}-{C_{12 }})}} \left/ {2} \right.} \). Therefore, the secular equation is
Equations (6.169) and (6.167) can be decomposed into four groups. The modes and the corresponding wave velocities \( {c_i}={\omega \left/ {{{k_i}}} \right.} \) can be given as follows:
Purely acoustic wave: mode, \( ({C_{66 }}{k^2}-\rho {\omega^2}){V_2}=0 \); velocity, \( {c_{s6 }}=\sqrt{{{{{{C_{66 }}}} \left/ {\rho } \right.}}} \)
Purely electromagnetic wave: mode, \( ({k^2}-{\omega^2}{\mu_0}{\epsilon_{11 }}){E_{02 }}=0 \); velocity, \( {c_e}=\sqrt{{{1 \left/ {{{\mu_0}{\epsilon_{11 }}}} \right.}}} \).
Stiffened acoustic wave (electrically quasi-static): modes, \( ({C_{44 }}{k^2}-\rho {\omega^2}){V_3}+{e_{15 }}\omega k{E_{01 }}=0 \), \( {\mu_0}{e_{15 }}\omega k{V_3}-{\omega^2}{\mu_0}{\epsilon_{11 }}{E_{01 }}=0 \); velocity, \( c_s^{*}=\sqrt{{{{{\left( {{{{{C_{44 }}+e_{15}^2}} \left/ {{{\epsilon_{11 }}}} \right.}} \right)}} \left/ {\rho } \right.}}} \)
Quasi-acoustic and quasi-electromagnetic coupling wave:
6.9 Transverse Wave Scattering from a Semi-infinite Conducting Crack
6.9.1 Fundamental Theory
Discuss a transversely isotropic piezoelectric material with isotropic magnetic behavior and isotropic plane \( {x_1}-{x_2} \). Assume the electromechanical coupling occurred between antiplane displacement \( \boldsymbol{ u}(0,0,{u_3}) \) and in-plane electric field \( \boldsymbol{ E}({E_1},{E_2},0) \). For mode-III problem Eq. (6.164) becomes
Let
The last one in Eq. (6.171) is a gauge condition to make \( \boldsymbol{ A} \) unique.
For a general mode-III case from Eq. (6.170), we obtained the electromagneto-acoustic wave equations:
where \( {\boldsymbol{\nabla}}\cdot \boldsymbol{ E}=-{{{\boldsymbol{\nabla}}}^2}\varphi +{{\ddot{\varphi}} \left/ {{c_e^2}} \right.} \) has been used. For the electrically quasi-stationary (EQS) case, we have \( {\boldsymbol{\nabla}}\times \boldsymbol{ E}=-\dot{\boldsymbol{ B}} =\mathbf{0} \), so Eq. (6.170) yields
In EQS case the electroelastic wave does not couple with magnetic field. Let
Using Eq. (6.174), Eq. (6.173) can be reduced to
If term \( {{\ddot{\varphi}} \left/ {{c_e^2}} \right.} \) is neglected, Eq. (6.173) is reduced to Eq. (4.239) for the electrically static problem. So the difference between the electrically quasi-stationary and static problems is very small, but Eq. (6.175) forms two hyperbolic equations, which may sometimes solve the problem easier. The constitutive equations are
6.9.2 Transverse Wave Scattering from a Semi-infinite Conducting Crack
Figure 6.18 shows the diffraction of an incident shear wave through a semi-infinite conducting crack in a transversely isotropic piezoelectric material. Li (1996) used the governing equations Eq. (6.175) to solve this problem and called it “quasi-hyperbolic approximation” method. The generalized displacement in the material is
where the superscripts “(\( i \))” and “(\( s \))” denote the incident and scattering fields, respectively. The incident acoustic wave is assumed in the following form:
where \( \mathrm{ g}\left( \tau \right) \) is a given real function, \( H(t) \) is the Heaviside function, \( U_0^{(i) } \) is the amplitudes of incident acoustic wave, and \( {n_1}=\cos {\theta_{\alpha }},\;{n_2}=-\sin {\theta_{\alpha }} \). For convenience the field variables in the upper half-space (\( {x_2}< 0 \)) and lower space (\( {x_2}> 0 \)) are labeled by supermarks “\( - \)” and “\( + \),” respectively. In order to apply the Wiener-Hopf technique an artificial interface \( {x_2}=0,{x_1}< 0 \) is introduced. Using Eq. (6.176) the boundary conditions on the crack and the artificial surfaces are
The initial and radiation conditions are as follows:
6.9.3 Derive the Wiener-Hopf Equations in Laplace Transform Region
Introduce the one-side Laplace transform \( \bar{f}({x_1},{x_2},p) \) with respect to time of \( f({x_1},{x_2},t) \) and its inverse transform:
where \( f({x_1},{x_2},t) \) is called original function, \( \bar{f}({x_1},{x_2},p) \) is image function, and \( p=\alpha +\mathrm{ i}\beta \) is the Laplace transform complex parameter. \( \bar{f}({x_1},{x_2},p) \) is an analytic function in the plane \( \mathrm{ Re}\;p>{\alpha_0} \), where \( {\alpha_0} \) is the growth exponent of \( f(t) \). The integral path in Eq. (6.181) is called Bromwich path. The two-side Laplace transform \( {{\bar{f}}^{*}}(\varsigma, {x_2},p) \) with respect to \( {x_1} \) of \( \bar{f}({x_1},{x_2},p) \) is defined as
Applying Eqs. (6.181), and (6.175), using the integral by parts and the initial and radiation conditions we find
To satisfy the boundary conditions at infinity, the solution is chosen in the following form:
where \( \mathrm{ Re}\alpha (\varsigma )\geq 0,\operatorname{Re}\beta (\varsigma )\geq 0 \) in the \( \zeta \) plane with branch cuts on the \( \mathrm{ Im}\varsigma =0 \):
Li et al. (2005a) adopted the Wiener-Hopf technique (Noble 1958; Zhu and Kuang 1995) to solve above problem. Introduce unknown functions:
So the boundary conditions can be expanded to the full range of the \( {x_1} \)-axis:
The double Laplace transform of Eq. (6.187) is
Substituting Eq. (6.184) and the transformed constitutive equation obtained from Eq. (6.176) into Eq. (6.188) we get
From Eq. (6.189) two decoupled Wiener-Hopf equations can be obtained:
The \( \bar{\sigma}_{23}^{*(i) } \) and \( {{\bar{\varphi}}^{*(i) }} \) in Eqs. (6.190a) and (6.190b) are the double Laplace transform of \( \sigma_{23}^{(i) } \) and \( {\varphi^{(i) }} \), respectively, and for an incident acoustic wave are equal to
6.9.4 Decomposing of the Function \( \mathcal{{K}}\)(ς)
In order to solve Eqs. (6.190) and (6.191), it is needed to factorize the function \( \mathcal{K}(\xi ) \) into sectionally analytic functions in the left and right half \( \varsigma \) plane, respectively. Let (Li 2000)
When \( \left| \varsigma \right|\to \infty \), \( \alpha \to \beta =\sqrt{{-{\varsigma^2}}} \) and \( \varOmega (\varsigma )\to 1 \). Factorize \( \varOmega (\varsigma ) \) into sectionally analytic functions \( {\varOmega_{+}}(\varsigma ) \) and \( {\varOmega_{-}}(\varsigma ) \) and \( \varOmega (\varsigma )={\varOmega_{+}}(\varsigma ){\varOmega_{-}}(\varsigma ) \). Let
where \( C \) is the integration path located in the \( \varsigma \) plane with cuts \( {C_{+}} \) and \( {C_{-}} \) (Fig. 6.19). There are three branch points inside \( {C_{+}} \) or \( {C_{-}} \).
Using the Cauchy principle value (PV) integration around \( {C_{+}} \), it is obtained
By using the Cauchy’s integral theorem, it is obtained
where \( {\varOmega_{\pm }}(\varsigma ) \) is corresponding to the notations “\( \pm \)” at right hand of the equality, respectively. Therefore, it yields
6.9.5 Solutions of the Wiener-Hopf Equations
Substitution of Eqs. (6.196) and (6.191) into Eq. (6.190a) yields
Introduce
Equations (6.197) and (6.198) yield
It is known that the functions at the left side in Eq. (6.199) are analytic in the right half-plane \( \operatorname{Re}\varsigma > 0 \) and equal to zero at infinity, whereas those on the right side are analytic in the left half-plane \( \operatorname{Re}\varsigma < 0 \) and they are continuous on \( \operatorname{Im}\varsigma =0 \). So according to Liouville theorem (Lavrenchive and Shabat 1951), these functions are analytic in whole plane and must be zero. So
Analogously from Eqs. (6.196) and (6.190b), it can be obtained
Substituting Eqs. (6.200) and (6.201) into Eq. (6.189), one can obtain \( {A_s}(\varsigma ),{B_s}(\varsigma ),{A_{as }},{B_{as }}(\varsigma ) \) and \( {A^{\pm }}(\varsigma ),{B^{\pm }}(\varsigma ) \):
Substituting Eq. (6.202) into (6.184) and carrying out the inverse transform with \( \varsigma \) we find
6.9.6 Scattering Fields in Front of the Crack Tip
The one-side Laplace inversion with time can be obtained by replacing the original Bromwich path with deformed Cagniard-de Hoop inversion contours (Fig. 6.20 ) in the \( \varsigma \) plane (Li et al. 2005a). The inversion procedure is given only for \( {x_2}> 0 \); for \( {x_2}< 0 \) the procedure is the same and is omitted. Along the Cagniard-de Hoop contours, the exponentials in Eq. (6.203) take the form \( {{\mathrm{ e}}^{-pt }} \):
A cut from \( -L_s^{*} \) to \( -{L_e} \) is needed due to two branch points \( \varsigma =-L_s^{*} \) and \( \varsigma =-{L_e} \). So a supplement path \( {\varGamma_{{\alpha \beta }}} \) is needed to avoid the cut for \( {\varGamma_{\alpha }} \). The physical interpretation of \( {\varGamma_{{\alpha \beta }}} \) is that the integral along \( {\varGamma_{{\alpha \beta }}}\left( {-L_s^{*} \cos {\theta_{\alpha }}\leq \varsigma \leq -{L_e}} \right) \) represents an electroacoustic head wave, or a quasi-surface wave, which almost propagates in parallel with the boundary surface. The electroacoustic head wave in piezoelectric material was proved by experiments of Liu et al. (1989). The path \( {\varGamma_{\beta }} \) always avoids the cut. Let \( x_1=r \cos \theta,\ x_2=r\sin \theta\) from Eq. (6.204) we get
Finally, the exact inversions are found:
where \( u_{{3\delta}}^{(s) },\psi_{\delta}^{(s) } \) denote the scattering fields due to the impulsive incident wave and \( u_{3r}^{(s) },\psi_r^{(s) } \) represent the reflective and transmission waves:
For an incident shear wave with \( \cos {\theta_{\alpha }}<{{{{L_e}}} \left/ {{L_s^{*}}} \right.} \) through a semi-infinite conducting crack in a transversely isotropic piezoelectric material, in front of the crack tip except the incident acoustic wave, there have been electroacoustic reflection, transmission, scattering and head waves, and electric scattering wave. Because in the “quasi-hyperbolic approximation” the Faraday’s electric induction by a changing magnetic field is not considered, it cannot be used to solve the problem for \( -L_s^{*} \cos {\theta_{\alpha }}>-{L_e} \) and the electric incident wave.
6.10 Transient Response of a Mode-I Crack
6.10.1 Fundamental Equations
Figure 6.21 shows a transverse isotropic piezoelectric strip of width \( 2h \) with a central crack of length \( 2a \) subjected to loadings \( -{\sigma_0}H(t),-{D_0}H(t) \) on the crack surface, where \( H(t) \) is the Heaviside step function. Axis \( {x_1} \) is along the crack direction and the polarized axis \( {x_3} \) is perpendicular to the crack. In plane \( {x_1}{x_3} \) there are generalized displacements \( ({u_1},{u_3},\varphi ) \) and stresses \( ({\sigma_1},{\sigma_3},{\sigma_5},{D_1},{D_3}) \). Applying the Voigt notations the constitutive equations are
The generalized momentum equations in displacements are
The mechanical and electric impermeable conditions are
When the derivatives of variables are zeros at the initial time, the Laplace transform (Eq. 6.181) of governing equations (6.208), (6.209), and (6.210) are
6.10.2 Reduction to Singular Integration Equations
Because the problem is symmetric with respect to \( {x_3}=0 \), it is only needed to consider the upper part. In the Laplace transform region, Wang and Yu (2001) adopted the solutions in the following Fourier integrals:
where \( {A_j}(\xi )(j=1-6) \) are unknown functions. Substitution of Eq. (6.214) into Eq. (6.212) yields
From Eq. (6.215) it is obtained
So the coefficient determinant of \( {q_j},{a_j},{b_j} \) must be zero, i.e.,
From Eq. (6.217) it can be obtained \( {\gamma_j}(j=1-6) \). For convenience let \( {q_j}=1 \) in Eq. (6.214), which has not lost the generality, and \( {a_j},{b_j} \) can be determined from Eq. (6.216):
\( {A_j}(\xi )(j=1-6) \) is determined by the boundary conditions.
Introduce the half of the generalized dislocation density:
Around the crack the single-valued conditions are
Substituting Eq. (6.214) into (6.211), then into the boundary conditions (6.213), and applying conditions (6.219), in the interval \( 0<{x_1}< a \), the following singular integral equations are obtained (Erdogan and Gupta 1972; Erdogan 1975; Lu 1984):
where
And
where \( {\varDelta_{jn }}(j=1-6,n=1,2) \) is the complementary minor of matrix \( |{M_{ij }}| \) with respect to the component \( {M_{nj }} \).
6.10.3 Solutions
In order to use the standard numerical method, introduce the dimensionless variables:
Equation (6.220) is rewritten as
where
Let
where \( {T_k}(\rho ) \) \( \left( {{U_k}(\rho )} \right) \) is the first (second) kind of the Chebyshev polynomials. Using the Gauss-Chebyshev formula yields a linear algebraic equation system
where
Because \( f({x_1},p),\mathrm{ g}({x_1},p) \) are the odd functions of \( {x_1} \), \( f(0,p)=\mathrm{ g}(0,p)=0 \), or \( R(-1,p)=T(-1,p)=0 \). So \( R({\rho_n},p)=T({\rho_n},p)=0 \), since \( {\rho_n} \) is the closest to \( -1 \) in all \( {\rho_k} \) in the limit sense \( n\to \infty \) (Erdogan and Gupta 1972; Achenbach et al. 1980). So Eq. (6.227) is a \( 2(n-1)\times 2(n-1) \) linear algebraic equations with \( 2(n-1)\times 2(n-1) \) variables \( R({\rho_k},p),T({\rho_k},p) \). It is solvable.
Applying the following behavior of the Chebyshev polynomials
in the Laplace transform region, the dynamic stress factors can be expressed as
The dynamic stress factors \( {K_{\mathrm{ I}}}(t),{K_D}(t) \) in the physical plane are obtained by the Laplace inverse transform using the numerical method. The asymptotic generalized stresses and displacements are
And the energy release rate with the electric enthalpy is
6.10.4 Numerical Example
In the numerical analysis the material is taken \( \mathrm{ PZT}\text{--}5\mathrm{ H} \) with material constants:
The solved values of \( {\alpha_k} \) are
Figures 6.22 and 6.23 show the variations of the dimensionless generalized dynamic stress intensity factors \( {{{({K_{\mathrm{ I}}},{K_D})}} \left/ {{{\sigma_0}\sqrt{{\pi a}}}} \right.} \) with the dimensionless time \( {{{\sqrt{{{{{C_{33}^{*}}} \left/ {\rho } \right.}}}\;t}} \left/ {a} \right.} \), \( C_{33}^{*}={C_{33 }}+{{{e_{33}^2}} \left/ {{{\epsilon_{33 }}}} \right.} \) under \( {h \left/ {a} \right.}=1.25 \) and the different loading parameters \( \lambda ={{{-{D_0}{\alpha_2}}} \left/ {{{\sigma_0}{\alpha_4}}} \right.} \). It can be seen that the dynamic intensity factors are increased at first and then decreased and after a long time they approach the static values.
6.11 On the General Dynamic Analyses of Interface Cracks
6.11.1 Governing Equations in Laplace-Fourier Transform Region
In this section the electrically quasi-static assumption is adopted. The generalized momentum and constitutive equations are shown in Eqs. (3.2) and (6.1) or
Shen et al. (1999) applied the Laplace-Fourier transform, i.e., at first adopted the Laplace transform (Eq. (6.181)) with respect to time and then used the Fourier transform (Eq. (4.242)) with respect to time \( {x_1} \), to solve the problem. When the initial derivatives of variables are zero, the Laplace transform of the Eq. (6.233) is
Denote the Fourier transform of \( {{\bar{u}}_i}({x_1},{x_2},p) \) as \( \bar{u}_i^{*}(s,{x_2},p) \) and let
By using \( \bar{u}_{l,1}^{*}=\mathrm{ i}s\bar{u}_l^{*},\quad \bar{u}_{l,11}^{*}={{(\mathrm{ i}s)}^2}\bar{u}_l^{*} \), the Fourier transform of the second equation in Eq. (6.234) with respect to \( {x_1} \) is
Introduce notations
where \( \boldsymbol{ Q},\;\boldsymbol{ T} \) are positive definite. Applying Eq. (6.237), Eq. (6.236) becomes
Assume
Substitution of Eq. (6.239) into Eq. (6.238) yields
Equations (6.237) and (6.240) are identical in the form with Eqs. (3.13) and (3.14), respectively, if use \( C_{1jk1}^{*} \) instead of \( {C_{1jk1 }} \). Analogous to Eq. (3.15), from \( \left| {\boldsymbol{ D}(\mu )} \right|=0 \) eight roots \( {\mu_j}(j=1\sim 8) \) can be obtained. When \( s\to \pm \infty \), Eq. (6.239) and \( {\mu_i} \) approach the static solutions. The general solution of Eq. (6.239) is
The Fourier transform of the first equation in Eq. (6.234) is
6.11.2 Dynamical Interface Crack
The material I is located at the upper half-plane \( {S^{+}} \), \( {x_2}> 0 \); the material II is located at the lower half-plane \( {S^{-}} \), \( {x_2}< 0 \); \( {x_1}=0 \) is the interface and there is a crack of length \( 2a \) on it. The coordinate origin is selected at the center of the crack (Fig. 4.2b). For the materials I and II, Eqs. (6.238) and (6.242) are all held. The boundary conditions are
where \( {\mathbf{\tau}_0 } \) is a constant vector. The initial conditions are
The jump value of the generalized displacements on \( {x_2}=0 \) is defined as
where \( {\mathbf{\psi}} ({x_1}) \) is the dislocation density. The single-valued condition around the crack is
The Laplace-Fourier transform of Eqs. (6.245) and (6.246) is
The Laplace transform of Eq. (6.243) is
6.11.3 Reduced to the Singular Integral Equation
In order to make \( {{\bar{\boldsymbol{ U}}}^{*}} \) finite when \( \left| s \right|\to \infty \), the solution of Eq. (6.241) is expressed as
where \( \mathrm{ N}=\mathrm{ I},\mathrm{ II} \). Equation (6.249) can be rewritten as
From Eq. (6.242) it is obtained
On the crack surface Eq. (6.251) becomes
where \( {{\boldsymbol{ Y}}^{{(\mathrm{ N})}}}=\mathrm{ i}{{\boldsymbol{ A}}^{{(\mathrm{ N})}}}{{\boldsymbol{ B}}^{{(\mathrm{ N})}}}^{-1 } \). Because on the whole interface \( \boldsymbol{\varSigma}_2^{{(\mathrm{ I})}}({x_1})=\boldsymbol{\varSigma}_2^{{(\mathrm{ I}\mathrm{ I})}}({x_1}) \), so
From Eqs. (6.247) and (6.253) it is obtained
Combining Eqs. (6.242), (6.247), (6.252), (6.253), and (6.254) and performing the Fourier inverse transform, it is obtained
Equation (6.255) is a singular integral equation, and its singular behavior is determined by the asymptotic behavior at infinity of the kernel function \( {s^{-1 }}\boldsymbol{ M}(s,p) \). When \( s\to \infty \), \( \boldsymbol{ Y}_j^{{(\mathrm{ N})}},\boldsymbol{ Y}_j^{{(\mathrm{ N})-1}} \) approach the static values, so are finite. At the static case \( \boldsymbol{ A}_2^{{(\mathrm{ N})}}=\bar{\boldsymbol{ A}}_1^{{(\mathrm{ N})}},\quad \boldsymbol{ B}_2^{{(\mathrm{ N})}}=\bar{\boldsymbol{ B}}_1^{{(\mathrm{ N})}} \). It is noted that for a constant, \( \bar{\boldsymbol{ A}} \) is not the Laplace transform of \( \boldsymbol{ A} \), but is the conjugate value of \( \boldsymbol{ A} \). From Eq. (6.252) it is obtained
So
or
By separating the singular part in Eq. (6.255) and then substituting the result into the boundary condition Eq. (6.248), the following singular integral equation can be obtained:
Let \( {\lambda_i} \) be the eigenvector of \( {{(\mathrm{ Re}{{\boldsymbol{ M}}_{\infty }})}^{-1 }}\mathrm{ Im}{{\boldsymbol{ M}}_{\infty }} \) and \( \boldsymbol{\varLambda} \) be the matrix constituted of \( {\lambda_i} \), then we get
Multiplying both sides of Eq. (6.259) by \( {{(\mathrm{ Re}{{\boldsymbol{ M}}_{\infty }})}^{-1 }} \) , introducing the dimensionless variable \( x={{{{x_1}}} \left/ {a} \right.},\eta ={\xi \left/ {a} \right.} \) and using Eq. (6.260), Eq. (6.259) can be reduced to
The solution of Eq. (6.261) can be expressed by the series of the Jacobi polynomials. Let
where \( P_n^{{(\alpha, \beta )}} \) is the Jacobi polynomial, \( {C_{ni }} \) is unknown constant, and \( {\alpha_k},{\beta_k} \) determined by Eq. (6.262) are the singular indexes of the dynamical problem and usually are complex numbers. As in usual elastic problem, in the front of the crack tip, there is a small region in which the displacements of the upper and the lower surfaces may be imbedded to each other. Substituting Eq. (6.262) into Eqs. (6.261) and (6.247) in terms of the dimensionless length \( x \), using the orthogonal relation of the Jacobi polynomials and \( P_0^{{(\alpha, \beta )}}(t)=1 \) and the following relations
the linear algebraic equations of \( C_n^k \) (\( C_0^k=0 \)) can be obtained. Where \( G_{kn}^{\infty }(x) \) is the principle part of \( P_n^{{({\alpha_k},{\beta_k})}}(x){w_k}(x) \) at infinity and is finite at \( x=1 \), it is no contribution on the stress intensity factors. Take the first \( N+1 \) terms. The following \( 4N \) equations determined by \( C_n^k \) can be obtained:
The singular part of the generalized traction in front of the crack tip \( \left| x \right|> a \) can be obtained from Eq. (6.255):
The generalized stress intensity factors in the Laplace transform region are
After solving \( \bar{\boldsymbol{ K}} \) in the Laplace transform region, the stress intensity factors in the physical region are obtained by the numerical Laplace inverse transform.
There are many papers to discuss the wave propagation in a piezoelectric material with defects, e.g., Li and Mataga (1996) discussed the semi-infinite crack propagation; Chen et al. (1998) discussed a Griffith moving crack along the interface of two dissimilar piezoelectric materials; Li and Weng (2002) discussed the Yoffe-type moving crack in a functionally graded piezoelectric material; and Ing and Wang (2004a, b) discussed the transient response of a semi-infinite propagating crack subjected to dynamic antiplane concentrated loading on the crack faces. Chen and Liu (2005) discussed the dynamic behavior of a functionally graded piezoelectric strip with periodic cracks vertical to the boundary. Shen et al. (2000) discussed the dynamics mode-III interfacial crack in nonlinear piezoelectric materials. Meikumyan (2007) discussed the diffraction of acoustic and electric waves in piezoelectric medium by an absorbent half-plane electrode.
