magneto elastic stress subjected to uniform magnetic field over a thin infinite plate containing an elliptical hole with an edge crack

two dimensional solutions of the magnetic field and magneto elastic stress are presented for a magnetic material of a thin infinite plate containing an elliptical hole with an edge crack subjected to uniform magnetic field. using a rational mapping function, each solution is obtained as a closed form. the linear constitutive equation is used for these analyses. according to the electro-magneto theory, only maxwell stress is caused as a body force in a plate. in the present paper, it raises a plane stress state for a thin plate, the deformation of the plate thickness and the shear deflection. therefore the magneto elastic stress is analyzed using maxwell stress. no further assumption of the plane stress state that the plate is thin is made for the stress analysis, though maxwell stress components are expressed by nonlinear terms. the rigorous boundary condition expressed by maxwell stress components is completely satisfied without any linear assumptions on the boundary. first, magnetic field and stress analyses for soft ferromagnetic material are carried out and then those analyses for paramagnetic and diamagnetic materials are carried out. it is stated that those plane stress components are expressed by the same expressions for those materials and the difference is only the magnitude of the permeability, though the magnetic fields hx, hy are different each other in the plates. if the analysis of magnetic field of paramagnetic material is easier than that of soft ferromagnetic material, the stress analysis may be carried out using the magnetic field for paramagnetic material to analyze the stress field, and the results may be applied for a soft ferromagnetic material. it is stated that the stress state for the magnetic field hx, hy is the same as the pure shear stress state. solutions of the magneto elastic stress are nonlinear for the direction of uniform magnetic field. stresses in the direction of the plate thickness and shear deflection are caused and the solutions are also obtained. figures of the magnetic field and stress distribution are shown. stress intensity factors are also derived and investigated for the crack length.
