ABSTRACT DR. Gordon describes a theory of ‘straining’ that is certainly not mine. Dr. Gordon merely discusses the rotation of an assembly of elemental _rigid_ blocks (or the undeformed body)
with initial vector diagonal _d_ R and current diagonal _d_ T, and correctly finds that since the body is not deformable then it can only rotate as a whole (or be translated). Dr. Gordon
gives no indication of what is to be understood as ‘strain’ in order to allow examination of the compatibility conditions mathematically necessary to ensure integrability to give
‘displacements’. Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of subscription content, access via your institution ACCESS OPTIONS Access through your institution
