Abstract

The 3D frictional contact model of graded magneto-electro-elastic (MEE) film-substrate system under electromagnetic fields is presented. The semi-analytical method (SAM) is used to solve this multi-physical contact problem. Firstly, the frequency response functions (FRFs) for every layer of MEE material subjected to unit mechanical, electric and magnetic loads are derived. Conjugate gradient method (CGM) is then employed to obtain contact responses with Discrete convolution-fast Fourier transformation (DC-FFT) speeding related calculations. Finally, multilayered model is used to approximate graded film with two types of grads, exponentially varying grad (EVG) and volume-fraction varying grad (FVG), the effects of the type and thickness of graded film and the friction coefficient are investigated. The results show that EVG film with gradient index less than one or FVG film with smaller volume fraction of piezoelectric phase at the surface are preferred for the MEE film-substrate systems.
