✦ Synopsis

The problem of an edge dislocation in the vicinity of an elliptical inhomogeneity is solved analytically in the form of infinite series. The inhomogeneous inclusion is assumed to be either perfectly bonded or sliding along the interface with the surrounding matrix. The problem is formulated in terms of Papkovich-Neuber displacement potentials and the results for the perfectly bonded and sliding interface are compared. The effects of the inclusion/matrix shear moduli ratio, inclusion/dislocation relative distance and inclusion aspects ratio on the interface stresses and the dislocation force are evaluated.
