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>
