Abstract
The weight function method normally applied to fracture mechanics prob lems is applied to problems without cracks. A procedure is described w hich allows the stresses in the surrounding of inclusions to be comput ed. The method is applied to compute stresses near inclusions and phas e-transformation zones in infinite bodies. The results are in good agr eement with analytical and FE solutions.
