The dynamic fracture problem for a functionally graded piezoelectric strip containing a center crack parallel to the free boundaries is considered in this study. It is assumed that the electroelastic properties of the medium vary continuously in the thickness direction, and that the strip is under in-plane mechanical and electric impact loadings. Integral transform techniques and dislocation density functions are employed to reduce the problem to the solutions of a system of singular integral equations. The dynamic stress and electric displacement intensity factors versus time are presented for various values of dimensionless parameters representing the crack size, the material nonhomogeneity and the loading combination.
