Line 3: {{Continuum mechanics\|solid}} '''Linear elasticity''' is a mathematical model ofas to how solid objects [[deformation (physics)\|deform]] and become internally [[stress (mechanics)\|stressed]] by prescribed loading conditions. It is a simplification of the more general [[Finite strain theory\|nonlinear theory of elasticity]] and a branch of [[continuum mechanics]]. The fundamental "linearizing" assumptions of linear elasticity are: [[Infinitesimal strain theory\|infinitesimal strains]] or "small" deformations (or strains) and linear relationships between the components of stress and strain. In addition linear elasticity is valid only for stress states that do not produce [[Yield (engineering)\|yielding]].
