A generalised neo-Hookean strain energy function for application to the finite deformation of elastomers

Afshin Anssari-Benam et al.

Summary: The new model proposed for the finite deformation of incompressible elastomers is simple with only two parameters, mu and N, derived within the classical framework of statistical mechanics. It effectively captures the deformation behaviors of each elastomer specimen using a single set of parameter values and outperforms the celebrated Gent model in terms of fit. With its structural molecular basis, simplicity, small number of parameters, and capability to describe multiple deformation modes using a single set of values, the new model is recommended for elastomer deformation applications.
