One more application of the Clausius-Duhem inequality <strong>for</strong> a special process<br />

will lead to an expression <strong>for</strong> the Cauchy stress in terms of the free<br />

energy. For this process, select the temperature gradient to be an arbitrary<br />

constant and the time rate-of-change of the temperature gradient to be identically<br />

zero. Eq 5.9-5 becomes<br />

(5.9-14)<br />

which must hold <strong>for</strong> all velocity gradients L ij. Picking a L ij that would violate<br />

the inequality unless the coefficient of L ij vanishes implies<br />

(5.9-15)<br />

In arriving at Eq 5.9-14 it was noted that the free energy had already been<br />

shown to be independent of the temperature gradient by virtue of Eq 5.9-11.<br />

Thus, g k was dropped from the independent variable list in Eq 5.9-14.<br />

Finally, substituting the results of Eqs 5.9-15, 5.9-13, and 5.9-11 into 5.9-5,<br />

a last restriction <strong>for</strong> an elastic material is found to be<br />

The concept of invariance has been discussed in Section 2.5 with respect to<br />

tensors. A tensor quantity is one which remains invariant under admissible<br />

coordinate trans<strong>for</strong>mations. In other words, all the different stress components<br />

represented by Mohr’s circle refer to a single stress state. This invariance<br />

is crucial <strong>for</strong> consolidating different stress components into a yield<br />

criterion such as the maximum shearing stress (or Tresca criterion).<br />

Invariance plays another important role in continuum mechanics. Requiring<br />

a continuum to be invariant with regards to reference frame, or to have<br />

unchanged response when a superposed rigid body motion is applied to all<br />

material points, produces some significant results. The most important of<br />

these consequences might be restrictions placed on constitutive models, as<br />

discussed in the next section.<br />

There are two basic methods <strong>for</strong> examining invariance of constitutive<br />

response functions: material frame indifference and superposed rigid body motion.<br />
