X Abstract

Abstract.  In this note we assert that the usual interpretation of what one means by “elasticity” is much too insular and illustrates our thesis by introducing implicit constitutive theories that can describe the non-dissipative response of solids. There is another important aspect to the introduction of such an implicit approach to the non-dissipative response of solids, the development of a hierarchy of approximations wherein, while the strains are infinitesimal the relationship between the stress and the linearized strain is non-linear. Such approximations would not be logically consistent within the context of explicit theories of Cauchy elasticity or Green elasticity that are currently popular.

RIS BibTeX
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
