Neo-Hookean hyperelastic law, using a Cauchy stress tensor $\boldsymbol{\sigma}$, stress in the current configuration.

(Quasi-)incompressibility is treated by a volumetric/deviatoric multiplicative split of the deformation gradient, i.e. $\bar{\mathbf{F}} = J^{-1/3}\mathbf{F}$. Hence the deviatoric potential is based on reduced invariants of $\bar{\mathbf{b}} =\bar{\mathbf{F}}\bar{\mathbf{F}}^T $.

$$ W\left(I_1,I_2,J\right) = \bar{W}\left(\bar{I_1},\bar{I_2}\right) + K f\left(J\right) = C_1\left(\bar{I_1} - 3\right) + \frac{k_0}{2}\left[ \left(J-1\right)^2 + \ln^2 J\right] $$

Holzapfel-Gasser-Ogden (invariant-based) anisotropic hyperelastic law, using a Cauchy stress tensor $\boldsymbol{\sigma}$, stress in the current configuration. This model is particularly suited to predict the response of biological tissues.

(Quasi-)incompressibility is treated by a volumetric/deviatoric multiplicative split of the deformation gradient, i.e. $\bar{\mathbf{F}} = J^{-1/3}\mathbf{F}$. Hence the deviatoric potential is based on reduced invariants of $\bar{\mathbf{b}} =\bar{\mathbf{F}}\bar{\mathbf{F}}^T $.

The strain-energy density function $W$ is expressed as the sum of an isotropic (=matrix) and anisotropic (=fibers) contribution: $$ W\left(\bar{I}_1,\bar{I}_4,J \right) = W_{iso}\left(\bar{I}_1,J \right) + W_{ani}\left(\bar{I}_1,\bar{I}_4\right) $$

The isotropic contribution takes the form of a generalized Neo-Hookean model: $$ W_{iso}\left(\bar{I}_1,J \right) = C_1\left(\bar{I}_1 -3\right) +K f\left(J\right) = C_1\left(\bar{I}_1 -3\right) +\frac{k_0}{2}\text{ln}^2 J $$

The anisotropic contribution to the strain energy density function writes: $$ W_{ani}\left(\bar{I}_1,\bar{I}_4\right) = \frac{k_1}{2k_2} \sum_{\alpha=1}^n \left[ e^{k_2\left<E_\alpha \right>^2} - 1 \right] = \frac{k_1}{2k_2} \sum_{\alpha=1}^n \left[ e^{k_2\left<d(\bar{I}_1-3)+(1-3d)(\bar{I}_4^\alpha - 1)\right>^2} - 1 \right], $$ where $k_1$[MPa] and $k_2$[-] are material parameters characterizing all fiber families in the material. $d\in[0,~\frac{1}{3}]$ is a parameter accounting for fiber dispersion, with $d=0$ corresponding to perfectly aligned fibers whilst $d=\frac{1}{3}$ corresponds to randomly oriented fibers (isotropic response). The model adds up to three different families of fibers ($\alpha \leq 3$), with their initial orientation given by $\mathbf{a}^\alpha = \left[a_{\alpha x},~a_{\alpha y},~a_{\alpha z} \right]$. Fiber directions do not have to be orthogonal.
