According to a new version of equations of elasodynamics of quasicrystals suggested by Ref, a finite difference method of the anti-plane elastic dynamic equations of 1D hexagonal and 3D icosahedral quasicrystals is developed. Further the dynamic behaviour of the material with a model III crack under impact loading is given.The results show dynamic stress intensity factor of the crack tip, in which the similar and different features with conventional materials are discussed, especially the phonon,phason and phonon-phason coupling effects are explored.

The forced torsional vibratory motion of an external circular crack in a transversely isotropic composite is investigated by using the method of Hankel transforms. A pair of vibratory torques of equal amplitude is applied at infinity. The infinite integral involved is evaluated through a contour integration to be discontinuous in nature. An exact expression for the dynamic stress intensity factor is obtained in terms of the frequency factor and the anisotropic material constants. The maximum value of the normalized dynamic stress-intensity factor is shown to occur at different frequency factors for the sample fiber-reinforced and metal matrix composites. The distortion of the dynamic crack surface displacement from the associated static displacement depends also on the forcing frequency and the material anisotropy.

The dynamic stress intensity factor for a stationary semi-infinite crack due to the motion of a screw dislocation is obtained analytically. The dislocation position, orientation, and speed are largely arbitrary. However, a dislocation traveling toward the crack surface is assumed to arrest upon arrival. It is found that discontinuities in speed and a nonsmooth path may cause discontinuities in the intensity factor and that dislocation arrest at any point causes the intensity factor to instantaneously assume a static value. Morever, explicit dependence on speed and orientation vanish when the dislocation moves directly toward or away from the crack edge. The results are applied to antiplane shear wave diffraction at the crack edge. For an incident step-stress plane wave, a stationary dislocation near the crack tip can either accelerate or delay attainment of a critical level of stress intensity, depending on the relative orientation of the crack, the dislocation, and the plane wave. However, if the incident wave also triggers dislocation motion, then the delaying effect is diminished and the acceleration is accentuated.
