The author studies an elastic plane weakened by two rectilinear cracks. It is assumed that in this plane the harmonic compression and shear waves are propagating whose potential function is \[ \varphi_\alpha(x,t) = \varphi_\alpha^0 e^{i(k_\alpha(n,x)-\omega t)},\quad \alpha = 1,2, \] where \(\varphi_\alpha^0\) is the wave amplitude, \(\,n=(\cos\gamma,\sin\gamma)\,\) is the vector of wave propagation direction, \(\,\omega\) is a circular frequency. The forces of contact pressure of the crack edges and fr iction in the contact domain under loading are taken into account. The author proposes an algorithm for the numerical solution of the problem on plane elastic waves interaction in the above-mentioned plane.
