In an exhaustive presentation of the linear theory of elasticity by Gurtin [The Linear Theory of Elasticity (Springer-Verlag, 1972)], the author included a chapter on the relation of the theory of elasticity to the theory of potentials. Potential theory distinguishes two fundamental physical categories: divergence-free and divergence-involving problems. From the criteria given in the source quoted by the author, it is evident that elastic deformation of solids falls into the latter category. It is documented in this short note that the author presented volume-constant elastic deformation as a divergence-free physical process, systematically ignoring all the information that was available to him that this is not so.

<abstract><p>The aim of this paper is to establish a representation formula for the solutions of the Lamé-Navier system in linear elasticity theory. We also study boundary value problems for such a system in a bounded domain $ \Omega\subset {\mathbb R}^3 $, allowing a very general geometric behavior of its boundary. Our method exploits the connections between this system and some classes of second order partial differential equations arising in Clifford analysis.</p></abstract>
