SUMMARY:Characterization of the static response of a two-dimensional elast
 ic network - Onofrei\, D (Utah)

DESCRIPTION:We will show that\, in the 2D static case \, any positive semi
 definte and balanced matrix $W$ is the response matrix of a purely elastic
  planar network. Moreover we will present a constructive proof for the fac
 t that the network we design for a particular response matrix $W$ can fit 
 within an arbitrarily small neighborhood of the convex hull of the termina
 l nodes\, provided the springs and masses occupy an arbitrarily small volu
 me.
