This monograph concerns the development, analysis, and application
of the theory of pseudo-rigid bodies. It collects together our work
on that subject over the last five years. While some results have
appeared else where, much of the work is new. Our objective in
writing this mono graph has been to present a new theory of the
deformation of bodies, one that has not only a firm theoretical
basis, but also the simplicity to serve as an effective tool in
practical problems. Consequently, the main body of the treatise is
a multifaceted development of the theory, from foundations to
explicit solutions to linearizations to methods of approximation.
The fact that this variety of aspects, each examined in
considerable detail, can be collected together in a single, unified
treat ment gives this theory an elegance that we feel sets it
apart from many others. While our goal has always been to give a
complete treatment of the theory as it now stands, the work here is
not meant to be definitive. Theories are not entities that appear
suddenly one day and thereafter stand as given. Rather, they must
mature and grow with time and experience. Our development is more
correctly a beginning, tempting others to explore, appraise, and
modify its features so as to produce something better.
