Normal uniform deformations of monotropic hyperelastic rods

A directed rod theory describes the deformation of a long, thin body called a rod. The rod is modeled as curve (the rod axis) with additional structure provided by a triad of vectors at each point along the rod axis. A hyperelastic rod is one which is associated with a scalar function called the str...
