Positive or negative Poynting effect? The role of adscititious inequalities in hyperelastic materials

Motivated by recent experiments on biopolymer gels whereby the reverse of the usual (positive) Poynting effect was observed, we investigate the effect of the so-called “adscititious inequalities” on the behaviour of hyperelastic materials subject to shear. We first demonstrate that for homogeneous i...
