In mechanics, a displacement field is the assignment of displacement vectors for all points in a region or body that are displaced from one state to another.[1][2] A displacement vector specifies the position of a point or a particle in reference to an origin or to a previous position. For example, a displacement field may be used to describe the effects of deformation on a solid body.
