Modelling the residually stressed magneto-electrically coupled soft elastic materials

Residual stresses may exist in different finitely deformed soft multifunctional materials such as electro-active and magneto-active polymers. In order to develop accurate constitutive frameworks of these smart experiencing electro-magneto-mechanically coupled loads, the presence residual needs be considered on onset model development. this contribution, a spectral equation for finite strain magneto-electric material bodies with is developed using invariants, where each invariant has clear physical meaning. A prototype total energy function comprising single-variable functions proposed; that depends an direct meaning easily handled experimentally attractive. Results some boundary value problems are given. • framework proposed stress. The entire based physically motivated invariant. propose. Relevant numerical examples demonstrated significant influence stress problems.
