Abstract
In this contribution, a new form of the strain energy function is proposed to describe the hyperelastic behavior of rubber-like materials under various deformation. The proposed function represents an invariant-based model and contains two material parameters. The model was tested with the experimental data of vulcanized rubbers, collagen and fibrin. The material parameters are kept constant for a material subjected to different types of loading. Good agreement between model and experimental data was obtained for all materials.
