Abstract Based on the theory of a directed or Cosserat curve of Green, Naghdi and several of their co-workers, several properly invariant approximate theories of an elastic rod are developed. The approximate theories are applicable when a rotation tensor associated with the motion of the rod is moderate. In one of these theories, some of the strains are moderate while others are small. A second theory where all of the strains are small is also developed.
