The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Letter from Charles Chree, on his paper 'The stresses and strains in isotropic elastic solid ellipsoids in equilibrium under bodily forces derivable from a potential of the second degree' to The Royal Society

Reference number: RR/12/68

Date: 15 December 1894

Description

Agrees that immediate publication in the Proceedings has its advantages and disadvantages. Wishes to publish the results along with an explanation of the method. The method is different from that employed in the Quarterly Journal of Mathematics. Refers to work of William Thomson, 1st Baron Kelvin, Gabriel Lamé and Cerruti. Finds the referees remarks unfair.
