Fully anisotropic finite strain viscoelasticity based on a reverse multiplicative decomposition and logarithmic strains
Abstract
In this paper we present a novel formulation for phenomenological anisotropic finite visco-hyperelasticity. The formulation is based on a multiplicative decomposition of the equilibrated deformation gradient into nonequilibrated elastic and viscous contributions. The proposal in this paper is a decomposition reversed respect to that from Sidoroff allowing for anisotropic viscous contributions. Independent anisotropic stored energies are employed for equilibrated and non-equilibrated parts. The formulation uses logarithmic strain measures in order to be teamed with spline-based hyperelasticity. Some examples compare the results with formulations that use the Sidoroff decomposition and also show the enhanced capabilities of the present model.
