Выражение встречается в следующем контексте:

The stresses derived using the strain path method do not fully satisfy the equilibrium condition because of the error in the assumed initial displacement field. In principle, if one equilibrium equation has been used to compute the mean pressure then the other may be used to obtain an adjustment to the displacement field so that an improved estimate is obtained. This process can then be repeated iteratively to arrive at a converged solution which satisfies the equilibrium condition. In the course of this research the following schemes have been adopted to attempt this correction.
