Deformation

M. Belevich

Abstract

We study an arbitrary deformation of a configuration of a body and show that this deformation may be reduced to a sequence of two special deformations: the rotation and stretching. The kinematics of a deformation is also considered. We introduce a notion of a vorticity vector and discuss its relationship with the antisymmetric part of the velocity gradient.
