Abstract

Abstract: This paper utilizes the Stroh formalism and the complex variable approach to derive the integral formulae and boundary integral equations of anisotropic thermoelectroelasticity for a bimaterial solid with Kapitza-type interface. Obtained integral formulae and boundary integral equations do not contain domain integrals, thus, the boundary element approach based on them does not require any additional procedures accounting for the stationary temperature field acting in the solid. All kernels of the boundary integral equations are written explicitly in a closed form. Verification for limiting values of thermal resistance of the interface is provided. Obtained boundary integral equations are incorporated into the boundary element analysis procedure. Several problems are considered, which shows the influence of thermal resistance of the bimaterial interface on fields' intensity at the tips of electrically permeable and impermeable cracks.
