In a previous paper [I], we presented a constitutive model for finitelydeformed fiber-reinforced materials applicable to biological tissues. The composite was assumed to be composed of a homogeneous matrix in which extensible fibers were embedded. Furthermore, it was assumed that both the matrix and the one-dimensional fibers were hyperelastic. Consequently, the strain-energy function for the composite was assumed to be the scalar sum of the energy stored in the matrix plus the energy stored in the fibers, all per unit initial volume.Herein, the finite deformation of a thin composite sheet is examined in order to study the fiber-induced material behavior predicted by the aforementioned constitutive model. Specifically, we demonstrate (I) how fibers with linear properties can induce overall nonlinear response, and (2) some consequences of fiber reorientation due to finite deformation.
