Linear Material Laws
The stress-strain relationship can be described in terms of two parameters in the
neighborhood of a strain-free reference configuration. Setting C = I +

1.11 Theorem. Suppose that in addition to the hypotheses of Corollary 1.10, γ 0 1
and γ 2 are differentiable functions of ı 1 (E), ı 2 (E) and ı 3 (E). Then there exist
numbers π, λ, µ with
˜
(I + 2 E) =− πI + λ trace (E) I + 2 µE + o(E)
as E 0 .
Sketch of a proof. First note that ˜
2 E) = γ 0 (E) I + γ 1 E + o(E) . In particular,
only the constant term in γ 1 is used. By Remarks 1.9, we know that ˜
( 1

(I) =− πI
0. By (1.24), we deduce that ı 2 = O (E 2 ) and ı 3 = O (E 3 ) ,
and only the constants and the trace remain in the terms of first order in γ 0 (E) .
with a suitable π
Normally, the situation C = I corresponds to an unstressed condition, and
π =
0. The other two constants are called Lame constants . If we ignore the terms
of higher order, we are led to the linear material law of Hooke :
˜

A material which satisfies (1.29) in general and not just for small strains is called
a St. Venant-Kirchhoff material. Note that in the approximation (1.6),
trace (ε) =
div u,
( 1 . 30 )
and thus the Lame constant λ describes the stresses due to change in density. The
other Lame constant µ is sometimes called the shear modulus of the material.
If we use a different set of frequently used parameters, namely Young's mod-
ulus of elasticity
and the Poisson ratio ν , we have the following relationship:
