Abstract

A complete mathematical model of Newtonian mechanics includes the representation of loads acting on an arbitrary continuous body. In the mechanics of rigid solids it is sufficient to consider that the loads are just forces which may be represented by sliding vectors, while in the case of a deformable continuum the loads must be represented by bound vectors. Owing to the deformability of the body, the loads have at the same time a local and an overall effect; the manner of representing the vector fields which correspond to various loads is particularly important.
