AbstractIncompressibleMaterialLaw

An incompressible hyper-elastic material law for finite elastiticy

The law is given by a strain energy function W(E), where E is the strain, such that the stress T = dW/dE. In this incompressible case W = W_material + p(I3-1) where W_material(E) is the material part of the strain energy, p is the pressure and I3 = det(C)
