Abstract

On condition that any perfectly plastic stress component near a singular point is nothing but the function of θ only, making use of equilibrium equations and Hill anisotropic yield condition, we derive the general analytical expressions of the anisotropic plastic stress field near a singular point in both the cases of anti-plane and in-plane strains. Applying these general analytical expressions to the concrete cracks and the plane-strain bodies with a singular point, the anisotropic plastic stress fields at the tips of Mode I, Mode II, Mode III and mixed mode I–II cracks, and the limit loads of anisotropic plastic plane-strain bodies with a singular point are obtained.
