The axiomatic deduction of the quadratic Hencky strain energy by Heinrich Hencky
Por Camilo Arcaya • 23 feb, 2014 • Category: CríticaThe introduction of the quadratic Hencky strain energy based on the logarithmic strain tensor log V is a milestone in the development of nonlinear elasticity theory in the first half of the 20th century. Since the original manuscripts are written in German, they are not easily accessible today. However, we believe that the deductive approach taken by Hencky deserves to be rediscovered today.
