Abstract: The antiplane shear problems of periodical rigid line inclusions between dissimilar anisotropic materials are dealt with. By using the complex variable method, the closed form solutions are obtained. The stress distribution in the immediate vicinity of the rigid line is examined. The corresponding formulation between dissimilar isotropic materials and in homogeneous anisotropic medium can be derived from the special cases of those in the present paper, and the limit conditions are in agreement with the previously known results.
