all models, data of expected modes of deformation is required when
curve-fitting. If limited (e.g., uniaxial) test data exists, consider use of

Customer Training Material... Yeoh Model Guidelines
One may note from the previous slides that the Yeoh model is
dependent on the first invariant I1 only.*
Yeoh ro osed omittin the second invariant term. The ustification of
this comes from the observation that changes in the strain energypotential is less sensitive to changes in the second invariant than the first
i.e. W/I >> W/I . This is es eciall true for lar er strains. Also, if only limited test data is available (e.g., uniaxial test), it has been
shown that ignoring the second invariant leads to better prediction of.
As strain increases, the shear modulus (slope) decreases slightly then
increases. To reflect this, use a cubic form (N=3):
c10 is positive, equal to half of initial shear modulus value
c20 is negative (softening at small strains), ~ 0.1 to 0.01 * c10
c30 is positive (stiffening at larger strains), ~ 1e-2 to 1e-4 * c10

The neo-Hookean form may be valid up to 30-40% tensile strains, and it
will not account for stiffening effects of the material, usually present at
larger strains.
Pure shear behavior may be characterized up to 70-90%. This is because
the neo-Hookean model exhibits a constant shear modulus.
Although moderate compression behavior can be characterized well (up
to 30%), significantcompression response may not be captured with neo-
Hookean.

It is apparent that the A-B model has some similarities to the Yeoh model,
although the coefficients are fixed, predefined functions of the limiting
network stretchL

This means that discussion of the Yeoh model and consideration of I1-
de endenc are a licable here as well.
From a physical standpoint, the use of I1 only means that the eight chains are
equally stretched under any deformation state, i.e., I1= 12+ 22+ 32 represents.
Additional usefulness of the Arruda-Boyce model stem from the fact that the

The A-B equation used here is actually the first five terms of the strain

Because only the first five terms of W are commonly used, this may cause the
limiting network stretch to be slightly less pronounced.
This does not invalidate the model but is simply mentioned in case one does
an academic exercise to stretch a model near the limiting stretch value. The
stress will rise dramaticall but will not ex erience an limitin stretch value.
It is important to note that, in this discussion, one is referring to the chain

Jm is the limiting value of (I1-3) in Gent, analogous to L being the limiting valueof chain stretch for A-B.
As stated in Gents paper, the value of Jm should be on the order of 100.
Because of the fact that Gents strain energy function is used exactly, Jm
is the limiting value of (I1-3) where stresses will increase without bounds.

also be a little more computationally expensive.
