A magneto-electro-elastic material, containing a moving screw dislocation, was considered using an extended version of the Stroth formalism. A complex-variable method was used to obtain closed-form solutions. These solutions, which subsumed previously known results as special cases, were expected to be of great help in analyzing the reliability of devices made from such advanced materials.
