Abstract A class of contact problems of electroelasticity is considered for a piezoelectric ceramic half-plane weakened by (a) a finite vertical cut coming against the boundary, (b) semi-infinite vertical cut separated from the boundary by a finite distance, or (c) internal finite vertical cut. A rigid punch is applied to a finite portion of the half-plane boundary symmetrically with respect to the cut axis. The punch base may have an arbitrary smooth shape. It is assumed that the piezoelectric ceramic half-plane is contiguous with vacuum and that the direction of the preliminary polarization is either parallel or perpendicular to the half-space boundary. The half-plane boundary has either a short-circuited electric coating or no coating. The normal pressure is assumed to act on the horizontal boundary apart from the punch and in the cut. All problems are considered for the plane strain state. The elastic displacements and the electric potential are utilized as the basic functions to be determined.

The solutions of the problems are represented by the sum of two Fourier series. To determine an arbitrary function of integration one should first solve dual or triple integral equations or a system of such equations and then solve a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind. The solvability of the latter equation is proved. Analytical expressions are obtained for the mechanical stress tensor components and for the vector of electric potential under the punch and on the cut extension with an isolated square-root singularity. In addition, the expressions for the intensity factors of these components on the edges of the punch and the cut are obtained. Numerical analysis of the behavior of these components is carried out and the corresponding graphs are plotted.
