AB  - A multi-layered model for heat conduction analysis of a thermoelectric material strip (TEMs) with a Griffith crack under the electric flux and energy flux load has been developed. The materials parameters of the TEMs vary continuously in an arbitrary manner. To derive the solution, the TEMs is divided into several sub-layers with different material properties. The mixed boundary problem is reduced to a system of singular integral equations, which are solved numerically. The effect of strip width on the electric flux intensity factor and thermal flux intensity factor are studied.
