The stresses and strains in isotropic elastic solid ellipsoids in equilibrium under bodily forces derivable from a potential of the second degree

    § 1. Let the isotropic elastic solid ellipsoid, a-2x2 + b-2y2 + c-2z2 = 1 . . . (1), of uniform density ρ, be acted on by bodily forces whose components Px, Qy, Rz are derivable from a potential V = ½ (Px2 + Qy2 + Rz2) . . . (2).
