The magnitude of the displacement vector for a system comprised by two hard inclusions embedded in an spherically finite elastic medium. The outer boundary of the medium is fixed (zero displacement vector), and the hard inclusions are subjected to a constant small displacement along the z-axis (the inclusions are being pulled apart). This image was rendered using gnuplot, epstool, and GraphicsMagick.

The Helmholtz free energy density for a system comprised by four hard inclusions embedded in an spherically finite elastic medium. The outer boundary of the medium is fixed (zero displacement vector), and the hard inclusions are subjected to a constant small radial displacement (the inclusions are being pulled apart).
