Can some one help me deriving Navier's equation of Linear elasticity using simple way for an isotropic and homogoneous elastic solid?

04 April 2016 1 9K Report

Navier's equation forms the starting point in Linear elasticity. And the simplest system seems to me as homogenous and isotropic material for which Navier's equation assumes simplest form. I would like to derive this equation.

Hi Ravi Gopal,

please consult the book Theory of Elasticity by A. I. Lurie. On the google books the pages 151-155 are visible, so you may follow the link
