Finite deformations of compressible hyperelastic tubes subjected to circumferential shear (Q1064131): Difference between revisions

Finite deformations of homogeneous, isotropic, hyperelastic and compressible tubes subjected to circumferential shearing forces are studied using the theory of finite elasticity. The coupled, nonlinear differential equations governing the problem are solved numerically to obtain the angle of twist and radial displacement. The qualitative difference of the present problem from the corresponding problem with incompressible material is the presence of radial deformations, the significance of this coupling is studied for various material constants. Limiting cases of infinitesimal deformations and incompressible material are compared with the findings of this work.
