Abstract
A pseudodifferential operator (pdo) for the 3D equilibrium problem of a crack in an anisotropic medium is constructed by the use of Fourier transformation and regularization technique. Properties of the princip le symbol and the pdo are investigated. An expression for the elastic energy of crack opening is obtained. A numerical method based on the v ariational approach for a plane crack in an anisotropic medium with ar bitrary elastic anisotropy is proposed.
