4.1.2.9 Ogden

This material describes an incompressible hyperelastic Ogden material [48]. The following material parameters must be defined:
<c[n]> Coefficient of n term, where n can range from 1 to 6 [P]
<m[n]> Exponent of n term, where n can range from 1 to 6 [ ]
<k> Bulk modulus [P]
The uncoupled hyperelastic strain energy function for this material is given in terms of the eigenvalues of the deformation tensor: Here, are the eigenvalues of , and are material coefficients and ranges from 1 to 6. Note that you only have to include the material parameters for the terms you intend to use.
Example:
<material id="1" type="Ogden">
  <m1>2.4</m1>
  <c1>1</c1>
  <k>100</k>
</material>
