    Abstract

    The basic equations of antiplane crack problem for orthotropic media were transformed by introducing the parameter in terms of those of isotropic media. The analogy relationship between the displacements and stresses of an anti-plane crack in an isotropic and an orthotropic plate is very simple so that the inverse transform is convenient. For explaining this analogy method, the William s general solutions to mode III two-dimensional crack problem of orthotropic plates with internal and edge cracks are derived, respectively. This analogy method is efficient for solving anti-plane crack problems of orthotropic plates.
