There various concepts of differential geometry, in particular aspects\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003erelated to compatibility, are generically applied to the kinematics of first- and second-\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eorder geometrically nonlinear continuum mechanics.
