✦ Synopsis

The method of determining approximative weight functions, well known for straight through surface cracks ("edge cracks"), is extended to internal straight through cracks. The procedure is outlined in detail for central cracks in endless strips of infinite and finite widths. For the finite width strip the coefficients of the weight function are given in a closed form.
