A contact mechanics approach, based on the implementation of the boundary element method, is used to analyse the stress distribution and frictional slip behaviour around spherical inclusions and cylindrical fibres embedded in infinite dissimilar matrices. A comparison between the boundary element and the corresponding finite element solutions shows good agreement between the two approaches. A range of inclusion/matrix elastic material properties is covered in the analysis together with a mismatch in thermal properties and thermal cooling.
