Correction to ‘On a new class of electroelastic bodies. I’

Abstract

Proc. R. Soc. A 469 , 20120521. (Published online November 14, 2012) ([doi:10.1098/rspa.2012.0521][1]) In §3c of [1] (Case 2), the linearized strain tensor e is given as (see eqn (3.21) therein) e = f ^ ( τ , E , a ) , where τ is the total stress tensor, E is the electric field and a is a direction field such that ∥ a ∥ = 1 (the direction where the body is transversely isotropic). There are two missing terms in eqn (3.22) of that paper for the explicit representation for e (see [2]). The … [1]: http://dx.doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2012.0521
