Abstract
The solution of elastodynamic volterra-type dislocation in an orthotropic half-plane is obtained by means of the Fourier transforms. The distributed dislocation technique is used to construct integral equations for an orthotropic half-plane weakened by cracks where the domain is under time-harmonic anti plane traction. These equations are of Cauchy singular type at the location of dislocation which is solved numerically to obtain the dislocation density on the faces of the cracks. The dislocation densities are employed to determine stress intensity factors for multiple smooth cracks. Several examples are solved and the stress intensity factors for multiple cracks with different configuration are obtained.
