โฆ Synopsis
The mechanical model is established for a piezoelectric sensor with a mode III permeable crack parallel to the imperfect interface. Fracture analysis is performed by the standard methods of Fourier transform and singular integral equation. Three conclusions are drawn: (a) the imperfect interface has a shielding effect on the crack parallel and very near to it; (b) the shielding effect depends on the structural stiffness and the distance between the crack and interface; (c) for the electrically permeable crack, mechanical imperfection has more remarkable shielding effect than dielectric imperfection does.

Turbine-generator shafts are often subjected to a complex transient torsional loading. Such transient torques may initiate and propagate a circumferential crack in the shafts. Mode III crack growth in turbo-generator shafts often results in a fracture surface morphology resembling a factory roof. Th
Without the customary assumption that the cracked-body is infinite in linear elastic fracture mechanics, the general solution of a central crack across the interface between two orthotropic media in a rectangular sheet under anti-plane shear is obtained by means of the Fourier transform and Fourier
