We prove the regularity of solutions to the strain tensor equation on degenerated hyperbolic surfaces S where the Gauss curvature is zero on a part of boundary. Furthermore, we obtain the density property that smooth infinitesimal isometries are dense in the W2,2(S,\R3) infinitesimal isometries. Finally, the matching property is established. Those results are important tools in obtaining recovery sequences (\Ga-lim sup inequality) for dimensionally-reduced shell theories in elasticity.
