𝑎𝛼 from the equation 𝐸𝑖𝑗 = (𝛿𝛼𝛽 − 𝛿𝑖𝑗 ) is then expressed as 𝑥𝛼 + 𝑢𝛼 where the subscript 𝑖 is

switched to 𝛼 that yields a partial derivative with respect to 𝑥𝑖 and 𝑥𝑗 equal to,
1 𝜕(𝑥𝛼 + 𝑢𝛼 ) 𝜕(𝑥𝛽 + 𝑢𝛽 )
𝐸𝑖𝑗 = (𝛿𝛼𝛽 − 𝛿𝑖𝑗 ).
2 𝜕𝑥𝑖 𝜕𝑥𝑗
Taking 1 as the the partial value of 𝑥𝛼 and 𝑥𝑖 when 𝛼 = 𝑖, we obtain a new equation,
1 𝜕𝑢𝛼 𝜕𝑢𝛽 1
𝐸𝑖𝑗 = 𝛿𝛼𝛽 (𝛿𝛼𝑖 + ) (𝛿𝛽𝑗 + ) − 𝛿𝑖𝑗 . Otherwise, it becomes zero.

Here, 𝑬𝒊𝒋 = 𝒆𝒊𝒋 = 𝜺𝒊𝒋 making the Green Strain(𝑬𝒊𝒋 ), and Almansi Strain(𝒆𝒊𝒋 ) identical to Cauchy’s
infinitesimal Strain(𝜺𝒊𝒋 ).
The derivation of the Almansi Strain(𝒆𝒊𝒋 ) is done when consider a line segment with end points 𝑥 and 𝑥 +
𝑑𝑥 as shown.
The strain can be defined in terms of the change in the squared length of the segment—that
is, 𝑑𝑙2 − 𝑑𝑙𝑜2 The squared length of the segment prior to deformation is
𝑑𝑙𝑜2 = 𝑑𝑥𝑖 𝑑𝑥𝑖 = 𝛿𝑖𝑗 𝑑𝑥𝑖 𝑑𝑥𝑗 where 𝛿𝑖𝑗 = 1, 𝑖 = 𝑗 and 𝛿𝑖𝑗 = 0 otherwise.
Following the deformation, the coordinates of the end points are ξ and ξ + d ξ. Then, the squared length of
the segment following deformation is
𝑑𝑙𝑜2 = 𝑑ξ𝑚 𝑑ξ𝑚 = 𝛿𝑚𝑚 𝑑ξ𝑚 𝑑ξ𝑛 .
When we can consider the final coordinates to be a function of the initial coordinates ξ𝑖 = ξ𝑖 (𝑥)or,
conversely,the initial coordinates to be a function of the final coordinates 𝑥𝑖 = 𝑥𝑖 (ξ). Adopting the former
approach, for the moment,and writing the total differential 𝑑ξ𝑚 as
𝜕ξ𝑚
𝑑ξ𝑚 = 𝑑x𝑗 , and
𝜕x𝑗
𝜕ξ𝑚 𝜕ξ𝑛
𝑑𝑙2 = 𝛿𝑚𝑛 𝑑x𝑖 𝑑x𝑗
𝜕x𝑖 𝜕x𝑗
Thus, the change in the squared length of the line segment is
𝜕ξ𝑚 𝜕ξ𝑛
𝑑𝑙2 − 𝑑𝑙𝑜2 = 𝛿𝑚𝑛 𝑑x𝑖 𝑑x𝑗 − 𝛿𝑖𝑗 𝑑𝑥𝑖 𝑑𝑥𝑗
𝜕x𝑖 𝜕x𝑗

𝑑𝑙2 − 𝑑𝑙𝑜2 = (𝛿𝑚𝑛 𝑚 𝑛 − 𝛿𝑖𝑗 )𝑑x𝑖 𝑑x𝑗
