A classical problem in the framework of nonlinear elasticity theory is the characterization of the materials that may sustain a pure state of anti-plane shear in the absence of body forces. This problem has been solved by Knowles and by Hill in the framework of isotropic and incompressible elasticity in the seventies. Here we provide a simpler and shorter proof of these classical results. Moreover, we extend these results to nonlinear elastodynamics and we provide some new special solutions.

Abstract

A classical problem in the framework of nonlinear elasticity theory is the characterization of the materials that may sustain a pure state of anti-plane shear in the absence of body forces. This problem has been solved by Knowles and by Hill in the framework of isotropic and incompressible elasticity in the seventies. Here we provide a simpler and shorter proof of these classical results. Moreover, we extend these results to nonlinear elastodynamics and we provide some new special solutions.
