For crystals with non-trivial point group symmetry, we demonstrate by examples how deriving restrictions imposed by symmetry groups (e.g., <span>(C_{2})</span>, <span>(C_{s})</span>, <span>(C_{3})</span>, etc.) whose symmetry elements do not completely specify a coordinate system could possibly miss the minimal representations, and how the Cartan decomposition of SO(3)-invariant irreducible tensor spaces could lead to coordinate systems under which the representations are minimal. For triclinic materials, and for material tensors and pseudotensors which observe a sufficient condition given herein, we describe a procedure to obtain a coordinate system under which the explicit minimal representation has its number of independent components reduced by three as compared with the representation with respect to an arbitrary coordinate system.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":624,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Elasticity","volume":"154 1-4","pages":"3 - 41"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49535117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This occurs even when the only activation is via the material swelling itself; the fibers being a passive hyperelastic material embedded in a swellable hyperelastic matrix. Using anisotropic hyperelasticity where the usual incompressibility constraint is generalized to model swelling, we consider such fiber guided deformation in the context of a circular cylinder subject to uniform swelling. The material is taken to be transversely isotropic with a fiber pattern corresponding to helical spirals in each cross section. This paper extends previous work which had examined a traction free outer radius that expanded while the inner radius was held fixed. Because of the spiral pattern, the tube in these previous studies exhibited increasing twist as the swelling proceeded. The problem considered here takes both inner and outer radius as free surfaces, thus causing the amount of radial expansion itself to be unknown. It is found that the spiral fiber pattern again induces a twist, and that this pattern also influences the nature of the radial expansion.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":624,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Elasticity","volume":"154 1-4","pages":"213 - 234"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44563223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
