    The integral equation method is used to obtain the scattered field of a normally incident plane wave from an elliptic crack embedded in an isotropic elastic medium. It is shown that the determination of the diffracted field depends on the solution of an integro-differential equation. A formal power series solution, in the low frequency limit, is obtained. Expressions are derived for the scattered amplitudes and the dynamic stress intensity factor.
