Electrofracture mechanics of dielectric aging

We introduce a fracture mechanics concept of aging in solid dielectrics. The key element is that growth of a damage structure is only possible if the release of electrostatic energy due to growth exceeds the formation energy of the damage structure. Both the electrostatic energy release and the form...

Zusammenfassung:	We introduce a fracture mechanics concept of aging in solid dielectrics. The key element is that growth of a damage structure is only possible if the release of electrostatic energy due to growth exceeds the formation energy of the damage structure. Both the electrostatic energy release and the formation energy are calculated for simple examples.
