The mechanical response of a homogeneous isotropic linearly elastic material can be fully
characterized by two physical constants, the Young's modulus and the Poisson's ratio, which …

The Ogden model is often considered as a standard model in the literature for application to
the deformation of brain tissue. Here, we show that, in some of those applications, the use of …

We present a new model within the class of generalised neo-Hookean strain energy
functions for application to the finite deformation of incompressible elastomers. The model …

A great variety of models can describe the nonlinear response of rubber to uniaxial tension.
Yet an in-depth understanding of the successive stages of large extension is still lacking. We …

We present a physics-based theoretical framework to describe the transient mechanical
response of polymers undergoing finite deformation. For this, a statistical description of the …

Elastomers are typically considered incompressible or slightly compressible. However, we
present simple tension and bulk tests showing that, under large deformations, these …

Due to their intrinsic complexity, it is not easy to model the mechanical behaviour of
biomaterials. Despite the challenges they faced, some researchers have presented …

The necessity of the inclusion of the second invariant of the left Cauchy-Green deformation
tensor B, namely I 2, in the strain energy function W of rubber-like materials is analysed …

超弹性材料是工程实际中的常用材料, 具有在外力作用下经历非常大变形,
在外力撤去后完全恢复至初始状态的特征. 超弹性材料是典型的非线性弹性材料 …

A novel viscous dissipation potential is proposed for the visco-hyperelastic constitutive
modeling of short-time memory responses of soft materials, which can capture both linear …
