... not absolutely inextensible , yet the forces which tend to stretch or tear it , when
it is treated as above described , are small enough to produce absolutely no
sensible stretching . Indeed the greatest stretching it can experience without

We have now to consider the very important kinematical conditions presented by
the changes of volume or figure experienced by a solid or liquid mass , or by a
group of points whose positions with regard to each other are subject to known ...

Hence CA experiences no alteration of length , but takes the altered position C ,

OA and OA ; equal respectively to OA and 0A ,, we find that the line CA ...

If a body experience a succession of strains , each unaccompanied by rotation ,
its resulting condition will generally be producible by a strain and a rotation .
From this follows the remarkable corollary that three pure strains produced one
