One of the main problems of elasticity theory is the determination of the deformation of the solid from rence configuration. The device used to characterize local deforma- formation “at a point” of the solid) is the strain tensor. The strain tensor, and its relation to the deformation field, forms the central topic of the Present chapter 3.1 KINEMATICS OF A DEFORMABLE SOLID The solid continuum is « mathematical model of a real, material solid with a definite shape, This shape can be changed by the application of forces, but it is assumed that a real material solid offers resistance to such induced changes in shape, the nature of which will be discussed. Throughout this book we the microscopic structure of the solid, this being the physics. Thus the continuum model of our solid Sisplays the same properties for volumes of all sizes, whether large or small ‘This is what is meant by the macroscopic approach, The adoption of the point leads us to the study of field quantities such as displace- ss, and 80 on, which are characterized as piecewise continu- space coordinates. the present chapter is to erect the mathematical frame- work which characterizes the deformation of a solid continuum. Toward this end we consider a solid body in some reference configuration B,, as shown in Fig. 3.1. This same body is also shown in a deformed configuration, B. In the process of changing its configuration from B, to B, the material solid may rotation. In addition, the solid experi- fences a change in shape (deformation). As shown in Fig. 3.1, both the reference configuration and the deformed ‘configuration can be nate system.

We also note that the results of Sections 2.6, 27, 28, and 2.9 are immediately applicable to the strain tensor concept. Thus we can speak of principal shear strains, maximum shear strain, Mohr’s circles for strain, cetahedral shear strain, strain deviator, and so on. It will not be necessary to develop these concepts separately, because they follow (formally) from Chapter 2.

Toward this end, it will be convenient to consider a small, rectangular parallelopiped with edges Qy4)= dr,~e,da,, DoBy= dr =e,da,, and QoCy= dr,=e,da, in the reference configuration, as shown in Fig. 34.
