In this paper the dynamic anti-plane problem for a functionally graded magneto-electro-elastic strip containing an internal crack perpendicular to the boundary is investigated. The crack is assumed to be either magneto-electrically impermeable or permeable. Integral transforms and dislocation density functions are employed to reduce the problem to Cauchy singular integral equations. Numerical results show the effects of loading combination parameter, material gradient parameter and crack configuration on the dynamic response. With the magneto-electrically permeable assumption, both the magnetical and electrical impacts have no contribution to the crack tip field singularity. However, with the impermeable assumption, both the applied magnetical loads and electrical loads play a dominant role in the dynamic fracture behavior of crack tips. And for the two kinds of crack surface conditions, increasing the graded index can all retard the crack extension.
This paper analyzes the dynamic magnetoelectroelastic behavior induced by a penny-shaped crack in a magnetoelectroelastic layer subjected to prescribed stress or prescribed displacement at the layer surfaces. Two kinds of crack surface conditions, i.e., magnetoelectrically impermeable and permeable cracks, are adopted. The Laplace and Hankel transform techniques are employed to reduce the problem to Fredholm integral equations. Field intensity factors are obtained and discussed. Numerical results of the crack opening displacement (COD) intensity factors are presented and the effects of magnetoelectromechanical loadings, crack surface conditions and crack configuration on crack propagation and growth are examined. The results indicate that among others, the fracture behaviors of magnetoelectroelastic materials are affected by the sizes and directions of the prescribed magnetic and/or electric fields, and the effects are strongly dependent on the elastic boundary conditions.
In this paper we investigate the magnetoelectroelastic behavior induced by a penny-shaped crack in a magnetoelectroelastic material. The crack is assumed to be magnetically dielectric. A closed-form solution is derived by virtue of Hankel transform technique with the introduction of certain auxiliary functions. Field intensity factors are obtained and analyzed.The results indicate that the stress intensity factor depends only on the mechanical loads. However, all the other field intensity factors depend directly on both the magnetic and dielectric permeabilities inside the crack as well as on the applied magnetoelectromechanical loads and the material properties of the magnetoelectroelastic material. Several special cases are further discussed, with the reduced results being in agreement with those from literature. Finally, according to the maximum crack opening displacement (COD) criterion, the effects of the magnetoelectromechanical loads and the crack surface conditions on the crack propagation and growth are evaluated.
Monolithic Au/CeO nanorod frameworks (NFs) with porous structure were prepared by dealloying melt-spun AlCeAu ribbons. After calcination in O, a 3D Au/CeO NF catalyst with large surface area was obtained and used for low-temperature CO oxidation. The small Au clusters/nanoparticles (NPs) were in situ supported and highly dispersed on the nanorod surface, creating many nanoscale contact interfaces. XPS results demonstrated that high-concentration oxygen vacancy and Au /Au co-existed in the calcined sample. The Au/CeO nanorod catalyst calcined at 400 °C exhibited much higher catalytic activity for CO oxidation compared with the dealloyed sample and bare CeO nanorods. Moreover, its complete reaction temperature was as low as 91 °C. The designed Au/CeO NF catalyst not only possessed extreme sintering resistance but also exhibited high performance owing to the enhanced interaction between the Au clusters/NPs and CeO nanorod during calcination.
