Abstract
The problem of collinear periodic cracks in an anisotropic medium is e xamined in this paper. By means of Stroh formalism and the conformal m apping method, we obtain general periodic solutions for collinear crac ks. The corresponding stress intensity factors, crack opening displace ments and strain energy release rate are found.
