Based on the closed-from solutions of the electroe- lastic Eshelby's tensors obtained in the part I of this paper and the generalized Bu- diansky's energy-equivalence framework, the closed-form general relations of effective electroelastic moduli of the piezocomposites with piezoelectric ellipsoidal inclusions are given. The relations can be applicable for several micromechanics models, such as the dilute solution and the Mori-Tanaka's method. The difference among the various models is shown to be the way in which the average strain and the average electric field of the inclusion phase are evaluated. Comparison between predicted and exper- imental results shows that the theoretical values in this paper agree quite well with the experimental results. These expressions can be readily utilized in analysis and design of piezocomposites.展开更多

The constitutive behavior of this kind of materials may involve both inherent anisotropy and plastic deformation induced anisotropy. A description of the cyclic plasticity for this kind of dual-phase materials is proposed by use of a microstructure-based constitutive model for a pearlitic colony, and the Hill＇s self-consistent scheme incorporating anisotropic Eshelby tensor for ellipsoidal inclusions. The corresponding numerical algorithm is developed. The responses of pearlitic steel BS 11 and single-phase hard-drawn copper subjected to asymmetrically cyclic loading are analyzed. The analytical results agree very well with experimental ones. Compared with the results using isotropic Eshelby tensor, it is shown that the isotropic approximation can provide acceptable overall responses in a much simpler way.展开更多

In this paper, it is solved via Green's function technique. The closed-form solutions of the electroelastic Eshelby's tensors for this kind of problem are obtained. The electroelastic Eshelby's tensors can be expressed by the Eshelby's tensors of the perfectly elastic inclusion problem and the perfectly dielectric inclusion problem. Since the closed-form solutions of the Eshelby's tensors of the perfectly elastic inclusion problem and the perfectly dielectric inclusion problem can be given by theory of elasticity and electrodynamics, respectively, the electroelastic Eshelby's tensors can be obtained conveniently. Using these results, the closed-form solutions of the constraint elastic fields and the constraint electric fields inside the piezoelectric ellipsoidal inclusion are also obtained. These expressions can be readily utilized in solutions of numerous problems in the micromechanics of piezoelectric solids, such as the deformation and energy analysis, damage evolution and fracture of the piezoelectric materials.展开更多
