This lecture explores hyperelasticity through examples, focusing on the 'Channel Die Compression' problem of a hyperelastic material. The instructor discusses the force versus vertical stretch relationship, equilibrium, boundary conditions, and constitutive law. The lecture also covers the behavior of Neo-Hookean materials regarding necking instability.
