Shear shock evolution in incompressible soft solids

Nonlinear evolution of shear waves into shocks in incompressible elastic materials is investigated using the framework of large deformation elastodynamics, for a family of loadings and commonly used hyperelastic material models. Closed form expressions for the shock formation distance are derived an...
