Normal stress effects induced during circular shear of a compressible nonlinear elastic cylinder (Q1905484)

(From the authors' summary.) The response of compressible nonlinear isotropic elastic materials is studied using the problem of the circular shearing of a hollow cylinder. The hollow cylinder's inner surface is fixed, and the outer surface is allowed to rotate but not move radially. The work is concerned with several issues not considered in previous studies, namely, how the load condition and material properties affect the distribution of local volume change and the local shear response. The study is carried out using a generalization of the Blatz-Ko constitutive equation.
