Abstract

Tangent stabilised large strain isotropic elasticity was recently proposed by Poya et al. (2023) wherein by working directly with principal stretches the entire eigenstructure of constitutive and geometric/initial stiffness terms were found in closed-form, giving fresh insights into exact convexity...
