Abstract
The problem of torsion of a transversely isotropic elastic half-space by a punch of general planform is considered. An approximate analytical solution is derived by a method based on some new results in potential theory obtained by the author earlier. A general relationship is established between the torque and the torsion angle. Some specific formulae are derived for punches having the planform of a polygon, a rectangle, a rhombus and a cross.
