Deformation

• Deformation of a body results in development of stresses inside the


body
• Stress is related to deformation (for solids) and deformation rate (for
fluids)
• Forces due to developed stress appear in equations of motion for the
body

• Right Cauchy Green tensor: 𝐶 = 𝐹 𝑇 𝐹 (symmetric, positive definite)
• Symmetric ⇒ eigen values are real and the eigen vectors are orthogonal
