Template:Continuum mechanics The polynomial hyperelastic material model is a phenomenological model of rubber elasticity. In this model, the strain energy density function is of the form of a polynomial in the two invariants $I_1,I_2$ of the left Cauchy-Green deformation tensor.

The strain energy density function for the polynomial model is

$W=\sum _{i,j=0}^n{C}_{ij}(I_1-3{)}^i(I_2-3{)}^j$

where $C_{ij}$ are material constants and $C_{00}=0$.

For compressible materials, a dependence of volume is added

$W=\sum _{i,j=0}^n{C}_{ij}({\overline{I}}_1-3{)}^i({\overline{I}}_2-3{)}^j+\sum _{k=1}^m{D}_k(J-1{)}^{2k}$

where

$\begin{array}{rl}{\overline{I}}_1& =J^{-2/3}{I}_1;I_1={\lambda }_1^2+{\lambda }_2^2+{\lambda }_3^2;J=\det (\mathit{F})\\ {\overline{I}}_2& =J^{-4/3}{I}_2;I_2={\lambda }_1^2{\lambda }_2^2+{\lambda }_2^2{\lambda }_3^2+{\lambda }_3^2{\lambda }_1^2\end{array}$

In the limit where $C_{01}=C11=0$, the polynomial model reduces to the Neo-Hookean solid model. For a compressible Mooney-Rivlin material $n=1,C_{01}=C_2,C_{11}=0,C_{10}=C_1,m=1$ and we have

$W=C_{01}({\overline{I}}_2-3)+C_{10}({\overline{I}}_1-3)+D_1(J-1{)}^2$
