For the Cauchy problem of nonlinear elastic wave equations for 3D isotropic, homogeneous and hyperelastic materials with null conditions, global existence of classical solutions with small initial data was proved in R. Agemi (Invent. Math. 142 (2000) 225–250) and T. C. Sideris (Ann. Math. 151 (2000) 849–874) independently. In this paper, we will give some remarks and an alternative proof for it. First, we give the explicit variational structure of nonlinear elastic waves. Thus we can identify whether materials satisfy the null condition by checking the stored energy function directly. Furthermore, by some careful analyses on the nonlinear structure, we show that the Helmholtz projection, which is usually considered to be ill-suited for nonlinear analysis, can be in fact used to show the global existence result. We also improve the amount of Sobolev regularity of initial data, which seems optimal in the framework of classical solutions.

Abstract REFERENCE: R. R. M. Ozelo, P. Sollero, and A. L. A. Costa, “An Alternative Technique to Evaluate Crack Propagation Path in Hyperelastic Materials,” Tire Science and Technology, TSTCA, Vol. 40, No. 1, January–March 2012, pp. 42–58. ABSTRACT: The analysis of crack propagation in tires aims to provide safety and reliable life prediction. Tire materials are usually nonlinear and present a hyperelastic behavior. Therefore, the use of nonlinear fracture mechanics theory and a hyperelastic material constitutive model are necessary. The material constitutive model used in this work is the Mooney–Rivlin. There are many techniques available to evaluate the crack propagation path in linear elastic materials and estimate the growth direction. However, most of these techniques are not applicable to hyperelastic materials. This paper presents an alternative technique for modeling crack propagation in hyperelastic materials, based in the J-Integral, to evaluate the crack path. The J-Integral is an energy-based parameter and is applicable to nonlinear materials. The technique was applied using abaqus software and compared to experimental tests.

No unified stress-based criterion exists, in the literature, for predicting the rupture of hyperelastic materials subjected to mutiaxial loading paths. This paper aims to establish a generalized rupture criterion under plane stress loading for elastomers. First, the experimental set up, at breaking, including various loading modes, is briefly described and commented. It consists of uniaxial tests, biaxial tests and pure shear tests, performed on different rubbers. The used vulcanizate and thermoplastic rubber materials are a Natural Rubber (NR), a Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR), a Polyurethane (PU) and a Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE). Then, we have investigated a new theoretical approach, based upon the principal stresses, to establish a failure criterion under quasi-static loadings. Thus, we have proposed a new analytical model expressed as a function of octahedral stresses. Quite good agreement is highlighted when comparing the ultimate stresses, at break, between the experimental data and the prediction of the proposed criteria using our rubber-like materials.
