A simple transformation of rite problem of the linear elastic structure is
presented. The transformed problem corresponds to a new problem of linear e
lastic structure with different behaviour; geometry and prescribed forces a
nd displacements. The transformed problem can be easier to study, or can co
rrespond to cases with well-known solutions. By means of this transformatio
n, the problem of ellipsoidal inclusion is transformed into a problem of sp
herical inclusion, the analytical results known far the Eshelby tensor for
an isotropic or transversely isotropic matrix are extended to more general
cases of matrix behaviour; and finally, close form expressions of the Green
function for an infinite medium are derived for some cases of elastic beha
viour without transversal isotropy or orthotropy. (C) 2000 Academie des sci
