Rank-one convexity implies polyconvexity in isotropic planar incompressible elasticity
Abstract
We study convexity properties of energy functions in plane nonlinear elasticity of incompressible materials and show that rank-one convexity of an objective and isotropic elastic energy W on the special linear group SL(2) implies the polyconvexity of W.
