By virtue of the separation of variables technique, the spherically symmetric electroelastic dynamic problem of a spherically isotropic hollow sphere is transformed to an integral equation about a function with respect to time, which can be solved successfully by means of the interpolation method. Then the solution of displacements, stresses, electric displacements, and electric potential are obtained. The present method is suitable for a piezoelectric hollow sphere with an arbitrary thickness subjected to spherically symmetric electric potential and radial mechanical loads, that both can be arbitrary functions about the time variable, at the internal and external surfaces.
