In order to predict pulsar glitch magnitudes in terms of the Ruderman starquake theory, it is necessary to calculate the deviation from perfect fluid behavior when a stationary rotating partly solid neutron star undergoes an elastic deformation due to a change in angular momentum. Previous calculations have been based on crude Newtonian or semi-Newtonian approximations. The present work describes the way to solve this problem exactly (in the small-deformation limit) using a fully relativistic treatment.
