Abstract
Using conformal mapping techniques and analytic continuation, we prove that when subjected to anti-plane elastic deformations, a non-parabolic open inhomogeneity continues to admit an internal uniform stress field when a circular Eshelby inclusion is placed in its vicinity and the surrounding matrix is subjected to uniform remote stresses. Explicit expressions for the non-uniform stress distributions in the matrix and in the circular Eshelby inclusion are obtained. The internal uniform stress field is independent of the shape of the inhomogeneity and the presence of the circular Eshelby inclusion, whereas the existence of the circular Eshelby inclusion exerts a significant influence on the shape of the non-parabolic open inhomogeneity as well as on the non-uniform stress distributions in the matrix and in the circular Eshelby inclusion itself.
