This paper analyzes the dynamic magnetoelectroelastic behavior induced by a penny-shaped crack in a magnetoelectroelastic layer subjected to prescribed stress or prescribed displacement at the layer surfaces. Two kinds of crack surface conditions, i.e., magnetoelectrically impermeable and permeable cracks, are adopted. The Laplace and Hankel transform techniques are employed to reduce the problem to Fredholm integral equations. Field intensity factors are obtained and discussed. Numerical results of the crack opening displacement (COD) intensity factors are presented and the effects of magnetoelectromechanical loadings, crack surface conditions and crack configuration on crack propagation and growth are examined. The results indicate that among others, the fracture behaviors of magnetoelectroelastic materials are affected by the sizes and directions of the prescribed magnetic and/or electric fields, and the effects are strongly dependent on the elastic boundary conditions.
