The plane stress problem of a thin elastic stiffener of finite length bonded to the edge surface of an anisotropic semi-infinite plate containing an internal crack is analyzed. In the analysis the singular point method is adopted. By the replacement of the stiffener and the crack with continuous distributions of concentrated forces and edge dislocations, respectively, we obtain a system of singular integral equations. Numerical calculations are performed to clarify the effects of the rigidity of the stiffner, anisotropy and the geometrical parameters of crack arrangement on the stress intensity factors at the tips of the crack, and the results are shown in figures.
