Abstract

In the previous chapters the general theories of stress and strain and their relationship in actual materials have been studied in some detail. The final stage in the development of the mathematical theory is the setting up of the equations of motion for the various types of substance considered: the equations of equilibrium follow from these as the special case in which there is no motion. These equations will be derived in ยงยง 33, 39, 41.
