1 Introduction

Widespread attention has been given to the thermal stress problems with inclusions，holes or cracks.For example，Florence and Goodier［1］，Sih［2］，Parton［3］，Zhang and Hasebe［4］，Chao and Shen［5－6］，Kattis and Patia［7］，and Kaminskii and Flegantov［8］studied the thermal stress problems in isotropic media，and also Sturla and Barber［9］，Hwu［10－11］，Tarn and Wang［12］，Chao and Chang［13］，Lin et al［14］and Shen and Kuang［15］discussed the thermal stress problems in anisotropic materials.

In recent years，the thermo－electric－mechanical coupling problem in thermopiezoelectric media with holes or cracks has also received much attention with increasingly wide application of thermopiezoelectric materials in the engineering.Gao and Wang［16］studied the 2Dproblem of thermopiezoelectric materials with cracks by means of the Parton assumption，i.e.the crack is considered as a thin slit and thus the normal components of electric displacement and the tangential component of electric field are assumed to be continuous across the slit［3］.They also presented an exact solution for the problem of an elliptic hole or a crack in a thermopiezoelectric solid［17］.The frac－ture analysis of a cracked thermopiezoelectric medium with thermoelectric loading has been dealt with by Ueda［18］.

However，all the references above supposed that the normal component of the heat flow could be treated as zero at the rim of the hole.In the present work，a semi－permeable thermal boundary condition is proposed to discuss the influence of the thermal conductivity acting on the stress and heat flow around the hole.

2 Basic Equations

The governing equations for piezothermoelastic problem can be expressed，in the stationary case without body force，extrinsic bulk charge and heat source，as folllows：

Governing equation

Constitutive equation

where qi，λij，T（i，j＝1，2）are the heat flux，heat conduction coefficients and temperature，respectively.

From Eqs.（1－2），we have

whereμt＝（－λ12＋iκt）／λ22，κt＝（λ11λ22－）1／2，λ11λ22－λ212＞0.

Substituting Eq.（3）into Eq.（2）yields

and

On the other hand，the resultant heat flow Qcan be expressed as

Substituting Eqs.（4－6）into Eq.（7）yields

The semi－permeable boundary conditions of heat flow is

whereλ1andλ2are two thermal conduction coefficients.

The complete set of governing equations are

where cijkl＝cjikl＝cijlk＝cklij；ekij＝ekji，εij＝εji；βij＝βji；i，j，k，l＝1，2，3，….σ，D，Eare stress，electric displacement and electric field，respectively；cijkl，ekij，εij，βijandτithe elasticity constants，piezoelectricity constants，dielectric constants，stress－temperature coefficients and pyroelectric coefficients，respectively.

Equilibrium equation are

Substituting Eqs.（10－11）into Eq.（12）yields

Introduce two function vectors u＝（u1，u2，u3，φ）Tandφ＝（φ1，φ2，φ3，φ4）T。

The homogeneous solutions of Eq.（13）are

and the particular solutions are

where c and d are the heat eigenvectors，which can be determined from the following equations

The final solutions of uandφare

And Aand Bsatisfy the following orthogonality relation

Assuming that the considered problem satisfies such a condition that for an arbitrary point on the boundary，the corresponding points ztand zα（α＝1－4）can be translated into an identical point，e.g.on the x1－axis or an unit circle，and as a result the boundary equation can be reduced to that containing one variable.Only under this condition，the one－complex－variable approach introduced by Suo［19］can be used to simplify analysis when the boundary conditions are considered［16，20］.In the present work these one－complex variable equations can be summarized as

Consider a generalized 2Dproblem of a thermopiezoelectric medium containing an circular hole as shown Fig.1.

The boundary conditions at the rim of the hole are

3 Temperature Field in Medium

From Eq.（9），the semi－permeable boundary conditions of heat flow is

g′（z）takes the form of

where g′0（z）is a holomorphic function outside the hole，g′0（∞）＝c（1）t，c（1）tis a constant corresponding to an uniform temperature field and thus can be neglected without loss in generality，andis another constant to be determined.

采用脫水劑，如DCC加速反應的機理是DCC上帶孤對電子的N進攻羧基氫，獲得氫后DCC中間C原子帶正電，然后失去氫后的羧基氧負進攻DCC中間C，接著DMAP吡啶環上的N因為帶有孤對電子，進攻羧基C，同時羧基另一個氧連在DCC上脫去，形成DCU，最后DMAP吡啶環上N進攻羥基氫，獲得氫后離去，而失去氫的羥基氧負進攻羰基C并成酯。DCC參與反應，一般要過量，DMAP可視為催化劑。

Substituting Eq.（25）into Eqs.（20－21），and taking the limiting z→∞yields

Eqs.（26－27）give

The following transform functions

Noting that on the hole，ζ＝σ＝eiθ，and

Eq.（24）can be rewriten as

Calculating the Cauchy integration leads to

Therefore the final form of g″（z）can be ex－pressed as

4 Electro－Elastic Field in Medium

Observing Eq.（36），the complex potential in the medium can be expressed as

where f0（z）is a holomorphic function outside the hole；c（2），c（1）andδare the three constant vectors to be found.

The force equilibrium condition and the conditions of single－valued displacement and electric potential require

whereΓnstands for a clockwise closed－contour encircling the hole，and

Substituting Eq.（37）into Eqs.（39－40），and then using the residue theorem produces

Using Eq.（18）and Eqs.（41－42）yields

Considering the fact that both the stresses and strains are bounded at infinity，we have

Using Eq.（18）one obtains from Eqs.（44－45）that

On the other hand，Eqs.（46－47）imply that the complex functions（）z and（Bc（2）＋）z，which are corresponding to the uniform heat flow in an infinite medium without holes，will not produce stress and strain，and thus can be cut out in the boundary equations.Thereforeφ and ucan be rewriten as

where

On the hole，we have

where

Ignore the electric field within the hole，the boundary condition is

Namely

One can obtain after calculating the Cauchy integration that

So far，all the field variables can be calculated.

5 Stresses on Hole Rim

The stress components are

Consider a transversly isotropic piezoelectric medium cadmium selenide，where the poling direction is parallel to the X3－axis.The material constants are

If our attention is focused on the field in X1－X3plane，the out－of plane displacement does not couple with the in－plane displacements and the electric potential，and the elastic matrices S，R and Wdegenerate into the 3×3ones

andβ1＝（β11，0，0）T，β2＝（0，β33，τ3）T.

Based on the given constants，we have

7 Conclusions

（1）The thermal boundary condition has significant effect influence on the hoop stress and heat flow around a hole in thermopiezoelectric materials under a thermal loading.

（2）The hoop stress decreases dramatically with the increasement of the thermal conduction coefficient，which means if the heat flow may pass through the hole easily，the hoop stress around the hole will be low.On the contrary，the gathering heat flow enhances the hoop stress.

（3）The orientationθwhen qn（or qτ）reaches its maximum changes with the variation of the thermal conduction coefficientλ1（andλ2）.But at certain points，qn（or qτ）andλ1（andλ2）are independent.
