Abstract

Kinematical assumptions leading to the approximate theory of small strain accompanied by moderate rotations are discussed with reference to a three-dimensional continuous body. In particular, the relationship with Korn's inequality is examined. It is found that for bounded bodies the coincidence of small strain and moderate rotation on subsets of non-zero volume measure is not possible. Two explicit examples are presented to illustrate this point.
