Abstract

Based on the representation of the incremental stress fields by complex potentials and conformal mapping technique, the fundamental solutions for an unbounded, homogeneous, orthotropic elastic body containing an elliptical hole subjected to uniform remote loads are determined. The orthotropic body is under by uniform remote tensile, tangential, and antiplane shear loads—cases corresponding to Mode I, Mode II, and Mode III of fracture. The solutions are obtained in a compact and elementary form.
