Static three-dimensional stress intensity factors of a semi-infinite plane crack are investigated in this paper. The deformations are caused by a pair of normal and tangential point forces acting on the crack faces but located away from the crack front. Cases of symmetric and anti-symmetric loadings

โฆ Synopsis
The three-dimensional problem of a semi-infinite plane crack whose faces experience normal and shear tractions is considered. The formulation departs significantly from the Papkovich-Neuber formulation used in the works of Kassir and Sih and Uflyand who have solved similar problems. This alternative formulation considerably reduces the complexity of the calculations involved. The results reported here for the case of symmetric shear tractions parallel to the crack edge appear to be new.

The solution to the title problem is presented in detail for the case of anti-plane deformation and compared with the more restricted solution available for the plane problem. When instantaneous point forces are applied to the crack's faces the stress ahead of the crack shows a delta-function singul
The high-frequency elastodynamic problem involving the excitation of an interface crack of finite width lying between two dissimilar anisotropic elastic half-planes has been analyzed. The crack surface is excited by a pair of time-harmonic antiplane line sources situated at the middle of the cracked
