Formula for the energy of elastic deformation

[QUOTE="Frabjous, post: 6449556, member: 499279"] It’s energy per unit volume. Conservation of energy implies that elastic energy is independent of order applied and depends only on final state. Otherwise one could find an order that creates/destroys energy. The first method takes advantage of this and applies the stresses/strains indendently and then adds them together. There are subtleties to this that I cannot do justice to. The second method applies everything at once and then integrates. [/QUOTE]
