Abstract
In the present paper, the elastodynamic response of four coplanar rigid strips embedded in an infinite orthotropic medium due to elastic waves incident normally on the strips is analyzed. The resultingmixed boundaryvalue problem is solved by an integral-equation method. The normal stress and the vertical displacement are derived in closed analytic form. Numerical values of stress-intensity factors at the edges of the strips and vertical displacements at point in the plane of the strips for several orthotropic materials are calculated and plotted graphically to show the effect of material orthotropy.
