    Abstract

    The singular stress, electric fields and magnetic fields in a rectangular magnetoelectroelastic body containing a moving crack under longitudinal shear are obtained. Fourier transforms and Fourier sine series are used to reduce the mixed boundary value problems of the crack, which is assumed to be permeable or impermeable, to dual integral equations, and then expressed in terms of Fredholm integral equations of the second kind. Results show that the stress intensity factors are influenced by the material constants, the geometry size ratio and the velocity of the crack, and the propagation of the crack possibly brings about branching phenomena.
