Methodical fitting for mathematical models of rubber-like materials
(The Royal Society Publishing, 2017-02-08)
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 show that the response can be ...
Wrinkles in the opening angle method
(Elsevier, 2017-06-10)
We investigate the stability of the deformation modeled by the opening angle method, often used to give a measure of residual stresses in arteries and other biological soft tubular structures. Specifically, we study the ...
