Three types of loadings are considered: axisymmetric, in-plane and out-of-plane shear. The limiting case of these solutions allows one to determine the complete coupled field in a magneto-electro-elastic material with a penny-shaped crack. Closed-form expressions for the stress, electric displacement and magnetic induction intensity factors of a penny-shaped crack are obtained.enjournal article10.1016/j.ijengsci.2003.12.001
