Abstract
The problem of opening two coplanar Griffith cracks in an infinite elastic medium has been considered in this note. The application of Somigliana's method to this mixed boundary value problem leads to a Foppl integral equation, whose solution has been derived in closed form with the help of a convolution theorem connected with finite Hilbert transforms.
