Abstract
The main aim of this work is to provide a brief overview of the analytical solutions available to describe the in-plane and out-of-plane stress fields in orthotropic solids with radiused notches. To this end, initially, a brief summary on the bases of complex potentials for orthotropic elasticity is presented, with reference to plane stress or strain and antiplane shear problems. Subsequently, the attention is moved to the relevant expressions for the notch stress fields, considering elliptical holes, symmetric hyperbolic notches, parabolic notches (blunt cracks), and radiused V-notches. Eventually, examples of applications are presented, comparing the presented analytical solutions with the results from numerical analyses carried out on relevant cases.
