Shear instability in skin tissue
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
We propose two toy-models to describe, predict and interpret the wrinkles appearing on the surface of skin when it is sheared. With the first model, we account for the lines of greatest tension present in human skin by ...
On anisotropic elasticity and questions concerning its Finite Element implementation
(Springer, 2013-05-21)
We give conditions on the strain-energy function of nonlinear anisotropic hyperelastic materials that ensure compatibility with the classical linear theories of anisotropic elasticity. We uncover the limitations associated ...
On stress-dependent elastic moduli and wave speeds
(Oxford University Press, 2013)
On the basis of the general non-linear theory of a hyperelastic material with initial stress, initially without consideration of the origin of the initial stress, we determine explicit expressions for the stress-dependent ...
