A class of compressible elastic materials capable of sustaining finite anti-plane shear
This paper describes a simple class of homogeneous, isotropic, compressible hyperelastic materials capable of sustaining nontrivial states of finite anti-plane shear. This paper consists of the following topics: 1.) field equations have been derived; 2.) the special subclass of materials has been specified and it has been further shown that non- trivial anti-plane shear is possible for all materials of this subclass; 3.) a subclass that corresponds to the neo-Hookean incompressible material has been discussed at length with the help of an example. The paper is concise and precise and has nicely been presented. It deals with the advanced concepts of elasticity. It is really a very good piece of research work. A good number of references has been cited indicating the authors awareness and keenness of the subject.
