This paper deals with the fracture mechanics of piezoelectric solids. All investigations consider a single crack, which is exposed to combined electrical and mechanical loading. The main subject of interest is the influence of electric fields on the fracture toughness of ferroelectric ceramics and the derivation of an appropriate fracture criterion. Numerical techniques are presented, allowing for...
