4.1.3.25 Coupled Transversely Isotropic Mooney-Rivlin
This material describes a transversely isotropic Mooney-Rivlin material using a fully-coupled formulation. It is define through the coupled trans-iso Mooney-Rivlin material type. The following material parameters must be defined.
c1 | Mooney-Rivlin parameter. | [P] |
c2 | Mooney-Rivlin parameter. | [P] |
c3 | exponential multiplier | [P] |
c4 | fiber scale factor | [ ] |
c5 | fiber modulus in linear region | [P] |
lam_max | maximum fiber straightening stretch | [ ] |
k | bulk-like modulus | [P] |
The strain-energy function for this constitutive model is defined by The first three terms define the coupled Mooney-Rivlin matrix response. The third term is the fiber response which is a function of the fiber stretch and is defined as in [58]. For , the following form is chosen in FEBio. where is the Jacobian of the deformation.
