Abstract
An interrelationship between the stress intensity factors for plane cracks in isotropic and transversally isotropic media is found for symmetric and obliquely symmetric force and symmetric temperature loadings. It is shown that the stress intensity factors for a plane crack in a transversally isotropic material can be obtained using standard formulas for the transition from the stress intensity factor for the corresponding problem in the case of an isotropic material. As examples, stress intensity factors are found for a circular crack, for a periodic system of circular cracks in a transversally isotropic material under force and temperature loading, etc.
