This article deals with the interaction between a cracked hole and a line crack under uniform heat flux. Using the principle of superposition, the original problem is converted into three particular cracked hole problems: the first one is the problem of the hole with an edge crack under uniform heat flux, the second and third ones are the problems of the hole under distributed temperature and edge dislocations, respectively, along the line crack surface. Singular integral equations satisfying adiabatic and traction free conditions on the crack surface are obtained for the solution of the second and third problems. The solution of the first problem, as well as the fundamental solutions of the second and third, is obtained by the complex variable method along with the rational mapping function approach. Stress intensity factors (SIFs) at all three crack tips are calculated. Interestingly, the results show that the interaction between the cracked hole and the line crack under uniform heat flux can lead to the vanishing of the SIFs at the hole edge crack tip. The fact has never been seen for the case of a cracked hole and a line crack under remote uniform tension. © Springer 2005.
