Abstract
In this work we derive from three-dimensional elasticity a general mat hematically justified theory for thin-walled elastic rods. This theory is obtained as an asymptotic approximation of the three-dimensional l inear model as the area and the thickness of the cross-section becomes successively small. It constitutes an extension of the classical Vlas sov's theory for thin-walled beams (the most complete among models cur rently used in engineering).
