A method is proposed for analyzing stress intensity factors and crack profiles for collinear multiple cracks perpendicular to welded joints in an infinite plate. Using the basic solution of a single crack and taking unknown density of fictitious tractions, Fredholm integral equations and algebraic equations are formulated based upon traction-free conditions and crack face displacements, respectively. These equations are solved simultaneously, considering the contact effect of crack surfaces. Using the derived density of fictitious tractions, the stress intensity factors and displacements of multiple cracks are determined. Some numerical examples are analyzed.

Stress intensity factors for a finite crack in an infinite plate are calculated assuming Kirchhoff plate theory. Two problems are considered: a cracked plate subjected to uniform far-field shearing, and a cracked plate subjected to uniform far-field bending moment. In both cases the crack is oriented at an arbitrary angle to the axis of loading.

Stress intensity factors of corner cracks at the bore of a rotating disk are estimated from the stress intensity factor of a quarter-elliptical crack in a quarter infinite solid and pressurized by the hoop stress. Curvature effect of the bore is incorporated through a curvature correction factor derived from the stress intensity factors of a single edge-cracked bore in a large plate and a single edge-cracked semi-infinite plate. Stress intensity factors for quarter-elliptical cracks with crack aspect ratios of b/a = 0.2, 0.4, and 0.98 at crack depths of b/Ri = 0.1, 0.3 and 1.0 in a rotating disk with R0/Ri = 8 are determined. Application of the developed procedure to corner crack problems at a through-bolt hole is indicated.
