Summary
A theory of relativistic elasticity based upon the ideas of classical infinitesimal elasticity and the special theory of relativity is developed. An approximate solution of the field equations in a uni-directional motion of the transient type is discussed.
Zusammenfassung
Auf den Grundlagen der klassischen Elastizitätstheorie infinitesimaler Deformationen und der speziellen Relativitätstheorie wird eine relativistische Elastizitätstheorie entwickelt. Eine Näherungslösung der Feldgleichungen für die eindimensionale instationäre Bewegung wird diskutiert.
