Elastic fields of 2D and 3D misfit particles in an infinite medium

In micromechanics, accurate quantification of the elastic field (stress, strain, and displacement) caused by the presence of an inclusion in an infinite body is desired for both the particle and matrix materials. Ideally, the solution should be applicable to any particle geometry or shape and for any distribution of misfit along the interface (i.e. misfit profile). This work presents a dislocation-based numerical method, that is an extension to earlier work in this journal [Lerma, J.D., Khraishi, T., Shen, Y.L., Wirth, B.D., 2003. The elastic fields of misfit cylindrical particles: a dislocation-based numerical approach. Mech. Res. Commun. 30, 325–334], for determining the elastic fields of volume misfit particles with arbitrary misfit distribution or particle shape.
