Extract

In a recent paper [1] “On brittle cracks under longitudinal shear” Barenblatt and Cherepanov consider the effect of a constant longitudinal shear on an infinite body containing some particular crack configurations. The problems considered are essentially two-dimensional problems and solutions are found using complex variable techniques. The object of this note is to extend their results to the case of an arbitrary longitudinal shear in an infinite body containing single rows of line cracks. The method employed is that used by England and Green [2].
