Analysing the elasticity difference tensor of general relativity

Ver documento

Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:The elasticity difference tensor, used in [1] to describe elasticity properties of a continuous medium filling a space-time, is here analysed. Principal directions associated with this tensor are compared with eigendirections of the material metric. Examples concerning spherically symmetric and axially symmetric space-times are then presented.
