On continuous dependence in finite elasticity

Scott J. Spector · Quarterly of Applied Mathematics · 1980

We investigate the relation between stability and continuous dependence for a nonlinearly elastic body at equilibrium. We show that solutions of the governing equations that lie in a convex, stable set of deformations depend continuously on the body forces and the surface tractions. The definition of stability used is essentially due to Hadamard.
