| Περίληψη: | A new method, based on the complex potentials of Kolosov–Muskhelishvili and Cauchy's theorem in complex analysis, is applied to the establishment of path-independence of some integrals along a curve surrounding the tip of a crack in plane isotropic or anisotropic elasticity. The cases considered are (i) of loaded straight cracks in plane isotropic elasticity, (ii) of unloaded cracks having the shape of a circular arc (circular-arc-shaped cracks) in plane isotropic elasticity and (iii) of unloaded straight cracks in plane anisotropic elasticity. Further generalizations of the proposed method can be easily made.
