A change in the configuration of a continuum body can be described by a [[displacement field (mechanics)|displacement field]]. A ''displacement field'' is a [[vector field]] of all displacement vectors for all particles in the body, which relates the deformed configuration with the undeformed configuration. The distance between any two particles changes if and only if deformation has occurred. If displacement occurs without deformation, then it is a rigid-body displacement.

In continuum mechanics, the finite strain theory—also called large strain theory, or large deformation theory—deals with deformations in which strains and/or rotations are large enough to invalidate assumptions inherent in infinitesimal strain theory. In this case, the undeformed and deformed configurations of the continuum are significantly different, requiring a clear distinction between them. This is commonly the case with elastomers, plastically-deforming materials and other fluids and biologicalsoft tissue.
Displacement
Figure 1. Motion of a continuum body.
The displacement of a body has two components: a rigid-body displacement and a deformation.
A rigid-body displacement consists of a simultaneous translation (physics) and rotation of the body without changing its shape or size.
Deformation implies the change in shape and/or size of the body from an initial or undeformed configuration to a current or deformed configuration (Figure 1).
A change in the configuration of a continuum body can be described by a displacement field. A displacement field is a vector field of all displacement vectors for all particles in the body, which relates the deformed configuration with the undeformed configuration. The distance between any two particles changes if and only if deformation has occurred. If displacement occurs without deformation, then it is a rigid-body displacement.
Material coordinates (Lagrangian description)
The displacement of particles indexed by variable i may be expressed as follows. The vector joining the positions of a particle in the undeformed configuration and deformed configuration is called the displacement vector. Using in place of and in place of , both of which are vectors from the origin of the coordinate system to each respective point, we have the Lagrangian description of the displacement vector:
where are the orthonormal unit vectors that define the basis of the spatial (lab-frame) coordinate system.
Expressed in terms of the material coordinates, the displacement field is:
where is the displacement vector representing rigid-body translation.
The partial derivative of the displacement vector with respect to the material coordinates yields the material displacement gradient tensor. Thus we have,
where is the deformation gradient tensor.
Spatial coordinates (Eulerian description)
In the Eulerian description, the vector extending from a particle in the undeformed configuration to its location in the deformed configuration is called the displacement vector:
where are the unit vectors that define the basis of the material (body-frame) coordinate system.
Expressed in terms of spatial coordinates, the displacement field is:
The partial derivative of the displacement vector with respect to the spatial coordinates yields the spatial displacement gradient tensor. Thus we have,
Relationship between the material and spatial coordinate systems
are the direction cosines between the material and spatial coordinate systems with unit vectors and , respectively. Thus
The relationship between and is then given by
Knowing that
then
Combining the coordinate systems of deformed and undeformed configurations
It is common to superimpose the coordinate systems for the deformed and undeformed configurations, which results in , and the direction cosines become Kronecker deltas, i.e.,
Thus in material (undeformed) coordinates, the displacement may be expressed as:
And in spatial (deformed) coordinates, the displacement may be expressed as:
Deformation gradient tensor
Figure 2. Deformation of a continuum body.
The deformation gradient tensor is related to both the reference and current configuration, as seen by the unit vectors and , therefore it is a two-point tensor.
Due to the assumption of continuity of , has the inverse , where is the spatial deformation gradient tensor. Then, by the implicit function theorem,[1] the Jacobian determinant must be nonsingular, i.e.
The material deformation gradient tensor is a second-order tensor that represents the gradient of the mapping function or functional relation , which describes the motion of a continuum. The material deformation gradient tensor characterizes the local deformation at a material point with position vector , i.e. deformation at neighbouring points, by transforming (linear transformation) a material line element emanating from that point from the reference configuration to the current or deformed configuration, assuming continuity in the mapping function , i.e. differentiable function of and time , which implies that cracks and voids do not open or close during the deformation. Thus we have,
Relative displacement vector
Consider a particle or material point with position vector in the undeformed configuration (Figure 2). After a displacement of the body, the new position of the particle indicated by in the new configuration is given by the vector position . The coordinate systems for the undeformed and deformed configuration can be superimposed for convenience.
Consider now a material point neighboring , with position vector . In the deformed configuration this particle has a new position given by the position vector . Assuming that the line segments and joining the particles and in both the undeformed and deformed configuration, respectively, to be very small, then we can express them as and . Thus from Figure 2 we have
where is the relative displacement vector, which represents the relative displacement of with respect to in the deformed configuration.
Taylor approximation
For an infinitesimal element , and assuming continuity on the displacement field, it is possible to use a Taylor series expansion around point , neglecting higher-order terms, to approximate the components of the relative displacement vector for the neighboring particle as
Thus, the previous equation can be written as
Time-derivative of the deformation gradient
Calculations that involve the time-dependent deformation of a body often require a time derivative of the deformation gradient to be calculated. A geometrically consistent definition of such a derivative requires an excursion into differential geometry[2] but we avoid those issues in this article.
The time derivative of is
where is the (material) velocity. The derivative on the right hand side represents a material velocity gradient. It is common to convert that into a spatial gradient by applying the chain rule for derivatives, i.e.,
where is the spatial velocity gradient and where is the spatial (Eulerian) velocity at . If the spatial velocity gradient is constant in time, the above equation can be solved exactly to give
assuming at . There are several methods of computing the exponential above.
Related quantities often used in continuum mechanics are the rate of deformation tensor and the spin tensor defined, respectively, as:
The rate of deformation tensor gives the rate of stretching of line elements while the spin tensor indicates the rate of rotation or vorticity of the motion.
The material time derivative of the inverse of the deformation gradient (keeping the reference configuration fixed) is often required in analyses that involve finite strains. This derivative is
The above relation can be verified by taking the material time derivative of and noting that .
Transformation of a surface and volume element
To transform quantities that are defined with respect to areas in a deformed configuration to those relative to areas in a reference configuration, and vice versa, we use Nanson's relation, expressed as
where is an area of a region in the deformed configuration, is the same area in the reference configuration, and is the outward normal to the area element in the current configuration while is the outward normal in the reference configuration, is the deformation gradient, and .
The corresponding formula for the transformation of the volume element is
To see how this formula is derived, we start with the oriented area elements
in the reference and current configurations:
The reference and current volumes of an element are
where .
Therefore,

So we get

Polar decomposition of the deformation gradient tensor
Figure 3. Representation of the polar decomposition of the deformation gradient
The deformation gradient , like any invertible second-order tensor, can be decomposed, using the polar decomposition theorem, into a product of two second-order tensors (Truesdell and Noll, 1965): an orthogonal tensor and a positive definite symmetric tensor, i.e.
where the tensor is a proper orthogonal tensor, i.e. and , representing a rotation; the tensor is the right stretch tensor; and the left stretch tensor. The terms right and left means that they are to the right and left of the rotation tensor , respectively. and are both positive definite, i.e. and for all non-zero , and symmetric tensors, i.e. and , of second order.
This decomposition implies that the deformation of a line element in the undeformed configuration onto in the deformed configuration, i.e. , may be obtained either by first stretching the element by , i.e. , followed by a rotation , i.e. ; or equivalently, by applying a rigid rotation first, i.e. , followed later by a stretching , i.e. (See Figure 3).

This polar decomposition, which is unique as is invertible with a positive determinant, is a corrolary of the singular-value decomposition.
Several rotation-independent deformation tensors are used in mechanics. In solid mechanics, the most popular of these are the right and left Cauchy–Green deformation tensors.
Since a pure rotation should not induce any strains in a deformable body, it is often convenient to use rotation-independent measures of deformation in continuum mechanics. As a rotation followed by its inverse rotation leads to no change () we can exclude the rotation by multiplying by its transpose.
The right Cauchy–Green deformation tensor
In 1839, George Green introduced a deformation tensor known as the right Cauchy–Green deformation tensor or Green's deformation tensor, defined as:[4][5]
Physically, the Cauchy–Green tensor gives us the square of local change in distances due to deformation, i.e.
where is the determinant of the deformation gradient and are stretch ratios for the unit fibers that are initially oriented along the eigenvector directions of the right (reference) stretch tensor (these are not generally aligned with the three axis of the coordinate systems).
The Finger deformation tensor
The IUPAC recommends[5] that the inverse of the right Cauchy–Green deformation tensor (called the Cauchy tensor in that document), i. e., , be called the Finger tensor. However, that nomenclature is not universally accepted in applied mechanics.
The left Cauchy–Green or Finger deformation tensor
Reversing the order of multiplication in the formula for the right Green–Cauchy deformation tensor leads to the left Cauchy–Green deformation tensor which is defined as:
The left Cauchy–Green deformation tensor is often called the Finger deformation tensor, named after Josef Finger (1894).[5][6][7]
Invariants of are also used in the expressions for strain energy density functions. The conventional invariants are defined as
where is the determinant of the deformation gradient.
For compressible materials, a slightly different set of invariants is used:
The Cauchy deformation tensor
Earlier in 1828,[8]Augustin Louis Cauchy introduced a deformation tensor defined as the inverse of the left Cauchy–Green deformation tensor, . This tensor has also been called the Piola tensor[5] and the Finger tensor[9] in the rheology and fluid dynamics literature.
Spectral representation
If there are three distinct principal stretches , the spectral decompositions of and is given by
Furthermore,
Observe that
Therefore, the uniqueness of the spectral decomposition also implies that . The left stretch () is also called the spatial stretch tensor while the right stretch () is called the material stretch tensor.
The effect of acting on is to stretch the vector by and to rotate it to the new orientation , i.e.,
In a similar vein,

Derivatives of stretch
Derivatives of the stretch with respect to the right Cauchy–Green deformation tensor are used to derive the stress-strain relations of many solids, particularly hyperelastic materials. These derivatives are

The undeformed length of the curve is given by
After deformation, the length becomes
Note that the right Cauchy–Green deformation tensor is defined as
Hence,
which indicates that changes in length are characterized by .
Finite strain tensors
The concept of strain is used to evaluate how much a given displacement differs locally from a rigid body displacement.[1][10][11] One of such strains for large deformations is the Lagrangian finite strain tensor, also called the Green-Lagrangian strain tensor or Green – St-Venant strain tensor, defined as
or as a function of the displacement gradient tensor
or
The Green-Lagrangian strain tensor is a measure of how much differs from .
The Eulerian-Almansi finite strain tensor, referenced to the deformed configuration, i.e. Eulerian description, is defined as
or as a function of the displacement gradients we have
Derivation of the Lagrangian and Eulerian finite strain tensors
A measure of deformation is the difference between the squares of the differential line element , in the undeformed configuration, and , in the deformed configuration (Figure 2). Deformation has occurred if the difference is non zero, otherwise a rigid-body displacement has occurred. Thus we have,
In the Lagrangian description, using the material coordinates as the frame of reference, the linear transformation between the differential lines is
Then we have,
where are the components of the right Cauchy–Green deformation tensor, . Then, replacing this equation into the first equation we have,
or
where , are the components of a second-order tensor called the Green – St-Venant strain tensor or the Lagrangian finite strain tensor,
In the Eulerian description, using the spatial coordinates as the frame of reference, the linear transformation between the differential lines is
where are the components of the spatial deformation gradient tensor, . Thus we have
where the second order tensor is called Cauchy's deformation tensor, . Then we have,
or
where , are the components of a second-order tensor called the Eulerian-Almansi finite strain tensor,
Both the Lagrangian and Eulerian finite strain tensors can be conveniently expressed in terms of the displacement gradient tensor. For the Lagrangian strain tensor, first we differentiate the displacement vector with respect to the material coordinates to obtain the material displacement gradient tensor,
Replacing this equation into the expression for the Lagrangian finite strain tensor we have
or
Similarly, the Eulerian-Almansi finite strain tensor can be expressed as
Logarithmic strain, Natural strain, True strain, or Hencky strain
Almansi strain
The second-order approximation of these tensors is

Many other different definitions of tensors are admissible, provided that they all satisfy the conditions that:[16]

the dependence of on the displacement gradient tensor is continuous, continuously differentiable and monotonic
it is also desired that reduces to the infinitesimal strain tensor as the norm
An example is the set of tensors
which do not belong to the Seth–Hill class, but have the same 2nd-order approximation as the Seth–Hill measures at for any value of .[17]
Stretch ratio
The stretch ratio is a measure of the extensional or normal strain of a differential line element, which can be defined at either the undeformed configuration or the deformed configuration.
The stretch ratio for the differential element (Figure) in the direction of the unit vector at the material point , in the undeformed configuration, is defined as
where is the deformed magnitude of the differential element .
Similarly, the stretch ratio for the differential element (Figure), in the direction of the unit vector at the material point , in the deformed configuration, is defined as
The normal strain in any direction can be expressed as a function of the stretch ratio,
This equation implies that the normal strain is zero, i.e. no deformation, when the stretch is equal to unity. Some materials, such as elastometers can sustain stretch ratios of 3 or 4 before they fail, whereas traditional engineering materials, such as concrete or steel, fail at much lower stretch ratios, perhaps of the order of 1.1 (reference?)
Physical interpretation of the finite strain tensor
The diagonal components of the Lagrangian finite strain tensor are related to the normal strain, e.g.
where is the normal strain or engineering strain in the direction .
The off-diagonal components of the Lagrangian finite strain tensor are related to shear strain, e.g.
where is the change in the angle between two line elements that were originally perpendicular with directions and , respectively.
Under certain circumstances, i.e. small displacements and small displacement rates, the components of the Lagrangian finite strain tensor may be approximated by the components of the infinitesimal strain tensor
Derivation of the physical interpretation of the Lagrangian and Eulerian finite strain tensors
The stretch ratio for the differential element (Figure) in the direction of the unit vector at the material point , in the undeformed configuration, is defined as
where is the deformed magnitude of the differential element .
Similarly, the stretch ratio for the differential element (Figure), in the direction of the unit vector at the material point , in the deformed configuration, is defined as
The square of the stretch ratio is defined as
Knowing that
we have
where and are unit vectors.
The normal strain or engineering strain in any direction can be expressed as a function of the stretch ratio,
Thus, the normal strain in the direction at the material point may be expressed in terms of the stretch ratio as
solving for we have
The shear strain, or change in angle between two line elements and initially perpendicular, and oriented in the principal directions and , respectively, can also be expressed as a function of the stretch ratio. From the dot product between the deformed lines and we have
where is the angle between the lines and in the deformed configuration. Defining as the shear strain or reduction in the angle between two line elements that were originally perpendicular, we have

Deformation tensors in convected curvilinear coordinates
A representation of deformation tensors in curvilinear coordinates is useful for many problems in continuum mechanics such as nonlinear shell theories and large plastic deformations. Let denote the function by which a position vector in space is constructed from coordinates . The coordinates are said to be "convected" if they correspond to a one-to-one mapping to and from Lagrangian particles in a continuum body. If the coordinate grid is "painted" on the body in its initial configuration, then this grid will deform and flow with the motion of material to remain painted on the same material particles in the deformed configuration so that grid lines intersect at the same material particle in either configuration. The tangent vector to the deformed coordinate grid line curve at is given by
The three tangent vectors at form a local basis. These vectors are related the reciprocal basis vectors by
Let us define a second-order tensor field (also called the metric tensor) with components
To see how the Christoffel symbols are related to the Right Cauchy–Green deformation tensor let us similarly define two bases, the already mentioned one that is tangent to deformed grid lines and another that is tangent to the undeformed grid lines. Namely,
The deformation gradient in curvilinear coordinates
Using the definition of the gradient of a vector field in curvilinear coordinates, the deformation gradient can be written as

Therefore,
The invertibility of the mapping implies that
We can also formulate a similar result in terms of derivatives with respect to . Therefore,
The problem of compatibility in continuum mechanics involves the determination of allowable single-valued continuous fields on bodies. These allowable conditions leave the body without unphysical gaps or overlaps after a deformation. Most such conditions apply to simply-connected bodies. Additional conditions are required for the internal boundaries of multiply connected bodies.
Compatibility of the deformation gradient
The necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a compatible field over a simply connected body are
Compatibility of the right Cauchy–Green deformation tensor
The necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a compatible field over a simply connected body are
We can show these are the mixed components of the Riemann–Christoffel curvature tensor. Therefore, the necessary conditions for -compatibility are that the Riemann–Christoffel curvature of the deformation is zero.
Compatibility of the left Cauchy–Green deformation tensor
No general sufficiency conditions are known for the left Cauchy–Green deformation tensor in three-dimensions. Compatibility conditions for two-dimensional fields have been found by Janet Blume.[18][19]
