Abstract

We find families of finite deformations of a Cosserat elastic continuum on which the system of equilibrium equations is reduced to a system of ordinary differential equations. These families can be used to describe the expansion, tension, and torsion of a hollow circular cylinder, cylindrical bending of a rectangular slab, straightening of a circular arch, reversing of a cylindrical tube, formation of screw and wedge dislocations in a hollow cylinder, and other types of deformations. In the case of a physically nonlinear material model, the above-listed families of deformations can be used to construct exact solutions of several problems of strong bending of micropolar bodies.
