Abstract
The Ogden model for an incompressible isotropic hyperelastic material is versatile enough to match complicated data for rubber-like materials at large deformations. However, the tensorial expression for the Cauchy stress in the Ogden model requires determination of the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the left Cauchy-Green deformation tensor \(\mathbf{B}\). The objective of this paper is to propose an invariant-based Ogden-type model for isotropic incompressible hyperelastic materials. The strain energy function in this new model depends on classical invariants of \(\mathbf{B}\) and the Cauchy stress tensor can be expressed directly in terms of the tensor \(\mathbf{B}\) without need for its spectral form. Examples show that this new Ogden-type model retains the versatility of the original Ogden model in characterizing material response.
