Remotely applied in-plane unidirectional electromechanical loads open the cracks in mode-I such that the saturation zone developed at the interior tips of cracks gets coalesced. The developed saturation zones are arrested by distributing over their rims in-plane normal cohesive electrical displacement. The problem is solved using the Stroh formalism and the complex variable technique. The expressions are derived for the stress intensity factors （SIFs）, the lengths of the saturation zones developed, the crack opening displacement （COD）, and the energy release rate. An illustrative numerical case study is presented for the poled PZT-5H ceramic to investigate the effect of prescribed electromechanical loads on parameters affecting crack arrest. Also, the effect of different lengths of cracks on the SIFs and the local energy release rate （LERR） has been studied. The results obtained are graphically presented and analyzed.展开更多

X-ray diffraction, SEM and Image analysis were used to analyse microstructure of TiB2 powder and compare with microstructure of TiB, fabricated by SHS elements syn-thesis from Ti+B system. The results show that TiB? powder fabricated by SHS reductive synthesis is finer (about 1. 5?m) ,uni former and free-agglomerate.展开更多
