3.4.2 Isotropic Hyperelasticity – Material DescriptionThe hyperelastic constitutive equations <strong>di</strong>scussed so far are unrestricted <strong>in</strong> theirapplication. In particular they are applied to the isotropic case. Isotropy is def<strong>in</strong>ed byrequir<strong>in</strong>g the constitutive behavior to be identical <strong>in</strong> any material <strong>di</strong>rection. Thisimplies that, for the representation theorem for <strong>in</strong>variants (Gurt<strong>in</strong>, 1981, Trusdell andNoll, 1992) the relationship between W and C must be <strong>in</strong>dependent of the materialaxes chosen and, consequently, W must only be a function of the <strong>in</strong>variants of C asW ( CX ( ), X) = W ( I , II , III , X)(3.96)C C Cwhere the <strong>in</strong>variants of C are def<strong>in</strong>ed here asIIICCIII= trC=C:1= trCC= C : CC= det C = J2(3.97)As a result of the isotropic restriction, the second Piola-Kirchhoff stress tensor can berewritten from equation (3.92) as∂W ∂W ∂I ∂W ∂II ∂W∂IIIS = 2 = 2 + 2 + 2∂C ∂I ∂C ∂II ∂C ∂III∂CC C CC C C(3.98)(3.99)Introduc<strong>in</strong>g the derivatives of the <strong>in</strong>variants with respect to C , enables the secondPiola-Kirchhoff stress to be evaluated as∂W ∂W ∂WS= 2 1+ 4 C+2JC∂I ∂II ∂III552 −1C C C(3.100)
