Non-self-balanced homogeneous solutions of the mixed plane problem of elasticity theory for and infinite wedge − α ⩽ θ ⩽ α, 0 ⩽ r ⩽ ∞, one part of whose boundary θ= ± α, 0 ⩽ r ⩽ 1 is under the conditions of sliding constraint and the other is stress-free, are constructed and investigated. The solutions are of independent interest since they determined the state of stress of a wedge (a wedgelike strip in an elastic plane) on which a load equivalent to a longitudinal force P, a transverse force Q and a moment M (see Fig. 1) acts through a stiff yoke (a wedgelike stamp). Together with the statically balanced homogeneous solutions, they form a system of functions needed to solve mixed problems for elastic finite sectorial domains by the method elucidated in [1].
