Abstract

In this note, we show that the Cauchy stress tensor σ σ in nonlinear elasticity is injective along rank-one connected lines provided that the constitutive law is strictly rank-one convex. This means that σ(F+ξ⊗η)=σ(F) σ(F+ξ⊗η)=σ(F) implies ξ⊗η=0 ξ⊗η=0 under strict rank-one convexity. As a consequence of this seemingly unnoticed observation, it follows that rank-one convexity and a homogeneous Cauchy stress imply that the left Cauchy-Green strain is homogeneous, as is shown in Mihai and Neff (Int. J. Non-Linear Mech., 2016, to appear).
