摘要
The Eshelby formalism for an inclusion in a solid is of significant theoretical and practical implications in mechanics and other fields of heterogeneous media. Eshelby's finding that a uniform eigenstrain prescribed in a solitary ellipsoidal inclusion in an infinite isotropic medium results in a uniform elastic strain field in the inclusion leads to the conjecture that the ellipsoid is the only inclusion that possesses the so-called Eshelby uniformity property. Previously, only the weak version of the conjecture has been proved for the isotropic medium, whereas the general validity of the conjecture for anisotropic media in three dimensions is yet to be explored. In this work, firstly, we present proofs of the weak version of the generalized Eshelby conjecture for anisotropic media that possess cubic, transversely isotropic, orthotropic, and monoclinic symmetries. Secondly, we prove that in these anisotropic media, there exist non-ellipsoidal inclusions that can transform particular polynomial eigenstrains of even degrees into polynomial elastic strain fields of the same even degrees in them. These results constitute counter-examples, in the strong sense, to the generalized high-order Eshelby conjecture (inverse problem of Eshelby's polynomial conservation theorem) for polynomial eigenstrains in both anisotropic media and the isotropic medium (quadratic eigenstrain only). These findings reveal striking richness of the uniformity between the eigenstrains and the correspondingly induced elastic strains in inclusions in anisotropic media beyond the canonical ellipsoidal inclusions. Since the strain fields in embedded and inherently anisotropic quantum dot crystals are effective tuning knobs of the quality of the emitted photons by the quantum dots, the results may have implications in the technology of quantum information, in addition to in mechanics and materials science.
