✦ Synopsis


Abatraet4omplex variable technique is employed to solve the elastodynamic problems of (I) two equal collinear Griffith cracks, (II) an infinite row of parallel cracks and (III) a "grid" of cracks of equal arms, propping with constant speed in a stressed orthotropic medium. Stress and displacement ~rn~nen~ are represented in terms of holomo~~c functions defined in two appropriate complex domains. Stress intensity factors and some asymptotic results are represented and briefly discussed.
