Abstract
It is shown that the complete system of equations of elasticity theory for an isotropic medium admits a unique representation in the hypoelastic form (the tensor of the rate of change of stresses is a linear function of the tensor of strain rates with coefficients depending on the invariants of the stress tensor). It is necessary to this end that the hypothesis be satisfied on the determination of strains by stresses which are unknown. Any arbitrariness in the choice of the coefficients of the hypoelastic relation may result in the thermodynamic identity being infringed.
