Abstract

The problem of collinear periodic cracks in an anisotropic medium is examined in this paper. By means of Stroh formalism and the conformal mapping method, we obtain general periodic solutions for collinear cracks. The corresponding stress intensity factors, crack opening displacements and strain energy release rate are found.
