Abstract
Longitudinal shear problems of collinear rigid line inclusions (sometimes called hard crack or inverse crack problems) in anisotropic materials are dealt with. By using the complex variable method, we present the formulation of the general problem and the closed form solutions to some problems of practical importance, The stress distribution in the immediate vicinity of the rigid line end is examined. The corresponding formulation and solutions for isotropic materials can be arrived at from the special cases of those in the present paper, some of which are in agreement with the existing results.
