E. Tsuchida et al., The elastic stress field in a half-space containing a prolate spheroidal inhomogeneity subject to pure shear eigenstrain, MAT SCI E A, 285(1-2), 2000, pp. 338-344
This paper presents an asymmetric elasticity solution for the stresses in a
half-space containing a prolate spheroidal inhomogeneity, when it is subje
cted to a uniform shear eigenstrain. The interface between the inhomogeneit
y and the surrounding matrix is assumed to be perfect bonding or sliding. P
apcovich-Neuber displacement potentials are used in the analysis. Numerical
examples are given for some different major semiaxes and shape ratios, and
the stress distributions around the inhomogeneity are shown graphically. P
