A constitutive model for fibre-matrix interaction in fibre-reinforced hyperelastic materials

The strain energy for incompressible transversely isotropic nonlinearly elastic materials reinforced by a single family of fibres is decomposed into an isotropic part representing the mechanical response of the isotropic matrix and an anisotropic part representing the contribution to the mechanical...
