Lecture

Hyperelasticity: Cavitation

Description

This lecture discusses the expansion of a spherical void under external pressure in incompressible Neo-Hookean material. It covers the displacement field, principle stretches, incompressibility, boundary conditions, constitutive law, equilibrium equations, and the cavitation instability in rubber-toughened polymers.
