A new constitutive framework for arterial wall mechanics and a comparative study of material models

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a constitutive law for the description of the (passive) mechanical response of arterial tissue, where the artery is modeled as a thick-walled nonlinearly elastic circular cylindrical tube consisting of two layers corresponding to the media and adventitia.

Invariant formulation of hyperelastic transverse isotropy based on polyconvex free energy functions

TL;DR: In this article, a formulation of polyconvex anisotropic hyperelasticity at finite strains is proposed, where the authors represent the governing constitutive equations within the framework of the invariant theory, in order to guarantee the existence of minimizers.

A polyconvex framework for soft biological tissues. Adjustment to experimental data

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple method for constructing transversely isotropic polyconvex functions suitable for the description of biological soft tissues is presented, where only a few parameters are necessary to approximate a variety of stress-strain curves and to satisfy the condition of a stress-free reference configuration a priori in the framework of polyconcaveity.
