Abstract: An exact analytical solution for the scattering of antiplane elastic waves by a layered elastic eccentric inclusion is derived beginning from the solution of the wave equation in elliptic coordinates. The solution and its degenerate cases are compared with other models, e.g. the scattering due to concentric circular scatterers. The effects of the geometrical properties of the interphase are studied. Hereby the focus lies on geometric parameters which fit the needs of Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC). The calculations are performed for material properties as they occur with TRC. The numerical results show an enormous influence of eccentricities within TRC to its wave scattering behaviour.
