Hi, dear all,

After having lvar advice, i think i better learn structure mechanics and fluid flow from the basic so i can build a complete FSI model.

I would like to learn plot the Second Piola Kirchoff stress vs stretch ratio, as attachment, COMSOL offer me luxurious choice(my favourite software).

May i know what is the correct way to plot it out?

Stretch ratio :The stretch ratio or extension ratio is a measure of the extensional or normal strain of a differential line element, which can be defined at either the undeformed configuration or the deformed configuration. It is defined as the ratio between the final length ℓ and the initial length L of the material line.

The stretch ratio as you defined it is a scalar quantity. The closest available output from COMSOL is the YY component of the right stretch tensor (solid.UstchYY) or the first principal stretch.
