Abstract
The problem of a center-cracked strip subjected to uniform remote anti-plane shear stress is transformed to a problem in a hodograph plane which is solved exactly by Mellin transform and Wiener-Hopf technique. The material of the strip satisfies a pure power hardening stress strain relation and the results are valid for both deformation and flow theories of placticity. Numerical values are given for the crack opening displacement δ and Rice's path independent J integral for several values of the power hardening exponent n and crack width to strip width ratios. Approximate asymptotic formulas are presented for J and δ for large n.
