Cauchy elastic material
Formally, a material is said to be Cauchy-elastic if the Cauchy stress tensor formula_1 is a function of the strain tensor (deformation gradient) formula_2 alone: formula_3 This definition assumes that the effect of temperature can be ignored, and the body is homogeneous.

A material is considered Cauchy-elastic if its Cauchy stress tensor is a function solely of the strain tensor, assuming constant temperature and homogeneity. The constitutive equation for a Cauchy-elastic material must remain unchanged under different observers due to material frame-indifference. For isotropic materia...

A Cauchy-elastic material is also called a simple elastic material.

A material is Cauchy-elastic if its Cauchy stress tensor is determined solely by its strain tensor, with temperature and body heterogeneity assumed negligible. However, such a material's stress may rely on the deformation path, making it generally non-conservative. Only certain Cauchy-elastic materials, known as hyper...
