Fig. 5--Normalized strain and surface energies for an elliptical core for different eccentricities with no constraints. Note as r n ~ 1, the difference at c~ = 0, becomes larger. However, it is e a s i e r to c a r r y out the o p e r a t i o n s i n d i cated in Eqs. [28] and [29] on ET and obtain two s i m u l t a n e o u s equations for R and rn, n a m e l y , [31]
