+Formulation for Rigid Body Motion and Small Strains
+\end_layout
+
+\begin_layout Standard
+In some crustal deformation problems sufficient deformation may occur that
+ the assumptions associated with infinitesimal strains assumed in the preceding
+ sections no longer hold.
+ This is often the case for problems when one wants to include the effects
+ of deformation on the overburden pressure.
+ In such cases we want to account for both rigid body motion and small strains.
+ The elasticity formulation in PyLith for small strains uses the Green-Lagrange
+ strain tensor and the Second Piola-Kirchoff stress tensor

+.
+ The Green-Lagrange strain provides a measure of the strain relative to
+ the original, undeformed configuration.

+\varepsilon_{ij}=\frac{1}{2}(u_{i,j}+u_{j,i}+u_{k,i}u_{k,i}),\text{ or}\\
+\varepsilon_{ij}=X_{ji}X_{ij}-\delta_{ij},\text{ where}\\
+X_{ij}=x_{i,j}(t)=\frac{\partial}{\partial x_{j}}(x_{i}(0)+u_{i}(t)),\end{gather}

+ The Second Piola-Kirchoff stress tensor, S_{ij}, is related to the Green-Lagran

+\begin_layout Standard
+The elasticity integral in the finite-element formulation includes additional
+ terms when we account for small strains.
+ Recognizing the similarity between the weighting function and an increment
+ in strain in the infinitesimal formulation (many finite-element texts derive
+ the finite-element formulation for elasticity using the Principle of Virtual
+ Work), we replace

+ in equation

+ Using the definition of the Green-Lagrangian strain, we have

+Dynamic Problems

+
+\begin_layout Standard
+The system Jacobian matrix in dynamic problems does not include the elasticity
+ term, so the system Jacobian matrix in the small strain formulation matches
+ the one used in the infinitesimal strain formulation.
