Abstract: In this paper, the functions of warping displacement interruption defined on the crack lines are taken for the fundamental unknown functions. The torsion problem of cracked circular cylinder is reduced to solving a system of integral equations with strongly singular kernels. Using the numerical method of these equations, the torsional rigidities and the stress intensity factors are calculated to solve the torsion problem of circular cylinder with star-type and other different types of cracks. The numerical results are satisfactory.
