A Natural Generalization of Linear Isotropic Relations with Seth-Hill Strain Tensors to Transversely Isotropic Materials at Finite Strains

Hooke’s law was naturally generalized to finite strains by Hill in 1978, by introducing the Seth-Hill strain and its conjugate stress. This paper presents the transversely isotropic relations, which are not only a natural extension of Hill’s theory from isotropic materials to transversely isotropic...
