Electroelastic Wave Scattering in a Cracked Dielectric Polymer under a Uniform Electric Field

We investigate the scattering of plane harmonic compression and shear waves by a Griffith crack in an infinite isotropic dielectric polymer. The dielectric polymer is permeated by a uniform electric field normal to the crack face, and the incoming wave is applied in an arbitrary direction. By the us...
