Popis: In this paper, the volume integral equation method (VIEM) is introduced for the numerical analysis of an infinite isotropic solid containing a variety of single isotropic/anisotropic spheroidal inclusions. In order to introduce the VIEM as a versatile numerical method for the three-dimensional elastostatic inclusion problem, VIEM results are first presented for a range of single isotropic/orthotropic spherical, prolate and oblate spheroidal inclusions in an infinite isotropic matrix under uniform remote tensile loading. We next considered single isotropic/orthotropic spherical, prolate and oblate spheroidal inclusions in an infinite isotropic matrix under remote shear loading. The authors hope that the results using the VIEM cited in this paper will be established as reference values for verifying the results of similar research using other analytical and numerical methods.
