A two-parameter strain energy function for brain matter: An extension of the Hencky model to incorporate locking

By just replacing the infinitesimal strains by logarithmic strains, the Hencky strain energy has proven to extend successfully the infinitesimal framework to moderately large strains, as those found in brain. However, as polymers and soft tissues, brain presents an important strain-stiffening toward...
