Abstract
Theoretical work concerning the microstructural characterization and analysis of anisotropic piezoelectric media with inclusions is rather scarce, especially in comparison with numerous results and micromechanics models which exist today on the inclusion problem in anisotropic elastic media. In this investigation, the Stroh formalism is used to develop a general solution for an infinite, anisotropic piezoelectric medium with an elliptic inclusion; the coupled elastic and electric fields both inside the inclusion and on the boundary of the inclusion and matrix are given.
