Nonlinear and linearized reciprocity relations in structural configurational mechanics

摘要

In order to provide a firmer foundation on which some reciprocity theorems in Eshelbian mechanics where established earlier, a nonlinear and then linearized formulation of these theorems is presented. To carry out the required operations a simple two-degrees-of-freedom system was chosen. The analysis led to mostly algebraic expressions which are also illustrated graphically. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
