Summary/Abstract: Anti–plane cracked functionally graded finite piezoelectric solid under time–harmonic elecro–mechanical load is studied by Boundary Integral Equation Method (BIEM). Considered are exponentially varying material properties. Numerical solutions are obtained by using Mathematica. The dependance of Stress Intensity Factor (SIF) on inhomogeneous material parameters and on the frequency of the dynamic load is analyzed by several numerical illustrative examples.
