Likely chirality of stochastic anisotropic hyperelastic tubes

When an elastic tube reinforced with helical fibres is inflated, its ends rotate. In large deformations, the amount and chirality of rotation is highly non-trivial, as it depends on the choice of strain–energy density and the arrangements of the fibres. For anisotropic hyperelastic tubes where the m...
