Elastic Wave Scattering and Dynamic Stress Concentrations around Double Holes in Piezoelectric Media ()
1. Introduction
In engineering practice, various holes of different shapes are often needed in piezoelectric materials and structures. The hole spacing will have an influence on the stress state. If the hole spacing is approximately solved according to a single hole, a large error is bound to occur.
In order to solve this problem, Hu [1] [2] et al. studied the diffraction and dynamic stress concentration of elastic waves with double circular holes in a plate by using complex variables and local coordinate system methods [3], and gave the function approximation sequence and boundary conditions of the general solution of the problem under the condition of incident bending waves in different directions. Liu [4] et al. established the integral equation of the definite solution of the problem. Finally, an example and result of the dynamic stress concentration of the interface circular hole are given, and the influence of the combination of different medium parameters on the dynamic stress concentration is discussed. Wang Ping [5] et al. discussed the relationship between the stress concentration coefficient at the defect boundary and the disturbance frequency, eccentric distance and azimuth angle, and verified the theoretical research results through numerical examples, and explained the influence of boundary and load on the concentration coefficient [6] [7]. Gao [8] et al. using boundary cannot carry out theoretical analysis and numerical calculation of elastic wave scattering and dynamic stress concentration problem of open infinite thin plate, and give the numerical results of dynamic stress concentration coefficient near the circular hole. According to the boundary conditions with zero radial and tangential stress at the edge of the hole, Chen [9] established the linear equations for solving the undetermined coefficients by the least square method, and obtained the approximate solution of the finite term coefficients. Liu [10] et al. constructed the scattering wave field by using the spherical wave potential function of expansion wave and vector shear wave. According to the boundary conditions, the boundary integral equation is established and solved by collocation, and some important laws of elastic wave scattering around three-dimensional inclusion body are revealed. And, theoretical and numerical solutions are presented for an elliptic hole or a crack in transversely isotropic piezoelectric materials under uniform internal pressure and remote electro-mechanical loads [11] [12] [13] [14] [15].
If adopting elastic dynamics theory and wave function expansion method, approximately solving the row of holes problem according to a single hole will produce larger errors. On the basis of single arbitrary hole, further solve the elastic wave scattering and dynamic stress concentrations problems in piezoelectric media with double holes.
2. Incidence of Electroacoustic Waves and Total Electromagnetic Wave Field
The governing equation and constitutive relation of the steady-state inverse plane dynamics problem of piezoelectrics used in this chapter are shown in (1) and (2).

Considering the case of an infinite piezoelectric material with two holes, a steady-state SH electroacoustic wave is incident along × axis, ignoring the time factor, the corresponding out-of-plane displacement field
and in-plane potential field

In the analysis of calculation, the local coordinate method can be used to convert the internal force component in the local polar coordinate system to the polar coordinate system to be calculated. Considering the multiple scattering between each hole, the elastic wave scattering field generated by the MTH hole in polar coordinate system

The total wave field of the anti-plane shear wave should be superposed by the incident field and the scattering field when solving the open-hole boundary value problem of the dielectric, then the total field of the piezoelectric material with double holes is:

6. Conclusion
This paper, based on elastic dynamics theory, uses Liu’s complex function and conformal mapping methods, and studies e-type piezoelectric material and elastic wave scattering and dynamic stress concentrations problems with double holes question. An analytical solution to the problems and numerical calculation results is given. By analysis and calculation results: 1) when the wave number 𝑘𝑎 is a constant, the maximum of the dynamic stress concentration factor varies as the hole spacing d/a varies, with different parameter 𝜆. Small hole spacing corresponds to greater impact on the dynamic stress concentration factor, and large hole spacing corresponds to less impact on the dynamic stress concentration factor. When the hole spacing d/a = 12.0, the dynamic stress concentration factor is no longer influenced by the adjacent holes, it is almost the same as the impact of a single object; 2) when the hole spacing d/a is a constant, as the wave numberkaincreases,the impact of the hole spacing on the dynamic stress concentration factor grows.
