Abstract

This work is the third on a series of papers by Gil and Ortigosa (Gil and Ortigosa 2016; Ortigosa and Gil 2016) on the development of a new computational framework for the analysis of Electro Active Polymers, where the concept of polyconvexity (Ball 1976) is extended to the case of electro-magneto-m...
