This lecture covers the Eshelby method, focusing on stress concentrations on the surface of an ellipsoidal void. It discusses modulus mismatch, eigenstrains, and the impact of inhomogeneity under load. The instructor explains the concept of stress concentrations and the role of eigenstrains in determining the mechanical behavior of materials.
