Modelling of transversely isotropic nonlinear incompressible soft tissues using spectral invariants

In isotropic elasticity, numerous strain energy functions with different types of invariants are developed to serve certain purposes. This wealth of functions has partly contributed to the knowledge of the mechanical behaviour of isotropic elastic solids. In general, soft tissues are not isotropic b...
