Abstract
A simple extension of the theory of pseudo-rigid bodies is proposed to allow for spatially inhomogeneous deformations of polynomial type. The kinematics of the admissible constrained motions and the corresponding balance laws are presented and discussed. A simple steady motion of such a higher-order elastic pseudo-rigid body is analyzed in detail to illustrate the applicability of the extended theory.
