Extract

In order to explain the phenomena of melting, tensile strength, etc., we have to investigate the stability of crystals for finite deformations, for which deviations from Hooke's law occur. Although these deviations are in most cases of an irreversible character, it is necessary, for a systematic study, to develop mathematical methods for treating the mechanical (reversible) case of a highly strained crystal lattice, where terms of higher order than the second in the deformation energy must be taken into account.
