Abstract A mechanical model based upon elasticity theory for the deformation around a pressurized elliptical hole in an homogeneous, isotropic solid has found application in many areas of engineering, rock mechanics, and structural geology. The explicit equations for stress and displacement around such a hole are given. An apl computer program for calculating these stresses and displacements also is presented. These equations and this program should ease future usage of this model by engineers and geologists.
