Summary A generalized and unified treatment is presented for the antiplane problem of an elastic elliptical inclusion undergoing uniform eigenstrains and subjected to arbitrary loading in the surrounding matrix. The general solution to the problem is obtained through the use of conformal mapping technique and Laurent series expansion of the associated complex potentials. The resulting elastic fields are derived explicitly in both transformed and physical planes for the inclusion and the surrounding matrix. These relations are universal in the sense of being independent of any particular loading as well as the geometry of the matrix. The complete field solutions are provided for an elliptical inclusion under uniform loading at inifinity, and for a screw dislocation interacting with the elastic elliptical inclusion.
