Abstract The single stress function approach of Westergaard has been effective for a certain class of stress-prescribed crack problems. In the present study, the Westergaard approach was successfully extended to displacement-prescribed crack problems. The method presented, which requires no more than the evaluation of integrals, significantly simplifies the analysis. The method is easily extended to crack problems involving displacement-prescribed and stress-prescribed conditions. This initial study laid the ground work for the subsequent extension to the mixed problem.
