Abstract The problem of a conducting rigid inclusion embedded in an infinite piezoelectric matrix is considered under the action of combined electromechanical impact loads. By using integral transform techniques, the mixed initial-boundary value problem for the case of anti-plane shear load and in-plane electric field is transformed into two systems of dual integral equations, the solutions of which give the singularity coefficients of electroelastic field near the inclusion tips in closed-form in the Laplace transform domain. Numerical results for the stress singularity coefficient in the physical space are presented graphically by numerically solving the resulting Fredholm integral equation and carrying out the numerical inversion of Laplace transform for a PZT-5H material with a conducting rigid line inclusion.
