Cover Story: To fill the gaps and deficiencies in the existing literature, an extended partially insulated crack model is proposed to consider the problem of a single crack in an orthotropic solid subjected to combined arbitrary symmetrical thermal/mechanical loads. With FTT application, thermoelastic partial differential equations (PDE) are transformed into singular integral equations, on which the thermoelastic fields with principle of superposition are based. The obtained results reveal that dimensionless thermal conductivity and the coefficient have influences on the heat flux per thickness normal to the crack surface and fracture parameters for cracked solid subjected to combined\constant thermomechanical loading.
