Abstract:With the aid of conformal mapping and analytic continuation, we prove that within the framework of anti-plane elasticity, a non-parabolic open elastic inhomogeneity can still admit an internal uniform stress field despite the presence of a nearby non-circular Eshelby inclusion undergoing uniform anti-plane eigenstrains when the surrounding elastic matrix is subjected to uniform remote stresses. The non-circular inclusion can take the form of a Booth’s lemniscate inclusion, a generalized Booth’s lemniscate incl… Show more
