Abstract

Multiple in-plane cracks in a piezoelectric or anisotropic plane loaded by time-harmonic waves is treated. Simulations for different crack configurations such as coplanar, collinear or cracks in arbitrary position to each other are presented and discussed. They demonstrate among others the strong effect of electromechanical coupling, show the frequency dependent shielding and amplification resulting from crack interaction and reveal the sensitivity of the K-factors to the complex influence of both the wave–crack and crack–crack interaction.
