Adapting a method introduced by Ball, Muite, Schryvers and Tirry, we construct a polyconvex isotropic energy function $W\colon\operatorname{GL^+}(n)\to\mathbb{R}$ which is equal to the classical Hencky strain energy \[ W_{\mathrm{H}}(F) =…
We describe ellipticity domains for the isochoric elastic energy $ F\mapsto \|{\rm dev}_n\log U\|^2=\bigg\|\log \frac{\sqrt{F^TF}}{(\det F)^{1/n}}\bigg\|^2 =\frac{1}{4}\,\bigg\|\log \frac{C}{({\rm det} C)^{1/n}}\bigg\|^2 $ for $n=2,3$,…

In this paper we propose an anisotropic extension of the isotropic exponentiated Hencky energy, based on logarithmic strain invariants. Unlike other elastic formulations, the isotropic exponentiated Hencky elastic energy has been derived…
The introduction of the quadratic Hencky strain energy based on the logarithmic strain tensor log V is a milestone in the development of nonlinear elasticity theory in the first half of the 20th century. Since the original manuscripts are…
In this paper we consider the additive logarithmic finite strain plasticity formulation from the view point of loss of ellipticity in elastic unloading. We prove that even if an elastic energy $F\mapsto W(F)=\hat{W}(\log U)$ defined in…

Cyclic multiaxial loadings of soft materials are usually studied throughout experiments involving machines that prescribe a combination of uniaxial tension and torsion. Due to the large strain framework, classical kinematic analyses of…
We study invariant metrics on Ledger-Obata spaces $F^m/\mathrm{diag}(F)$. We give the classification and an explicit construction of all naturally reductive metrics, and also show that in the case $m=3$, any invariant metric is naturally…

We present a quantitative geometric rigidity estimate in dimensions $d=2,3$ generalizing the celebrated result by Friesecke, James, and M\"uller to the setting of variable domains. Loosely speaking, we show that for each $y \in…
This work presents a hyper-viscoelastic model based on the Hencky-logarithmic strain tensor to model the response of a Tire Derived Material (TDM) undergoing moderately large deformations. TDM is a composite made by cold forging a mix of…
Usual introductions of the concept of motion are not well adapted to a subsequent, strictly tensorial, theory of elasticity. The consideration of arbitrary coordinate systems for the representation of both, the points in the laboratory, and…
Let $U$ be a unitary operator acting on the Hilbert space $H$, $\a:\{1,..., 2k\}\mapsto\{1,..., k\}$ a pair--partition, and finally $A_{1},...,A_{2k-1}\in B(H)$. We show that the ergodic average $$…
