In this paper we write the propagation condition of acceleration waves in internally constrained hyperelastic materials as an eigenvalue problem for a symmetric tensor. It follows that both the reality of the eigenvalues and the orthogonality of the corresponding eigenvectors are a priori guaranteed, so that the proofs used by other authors are avoided. Moreover, we find a necessary and sufficient condition for the positiveness of all eigenvalues.

Abstract
In this paper we write the propagation condition of acceleration waves in internally constrained hyperelastic materials as an eigenvalue problem for a symmetric tensor. It follows that both the reality of the eigenvalues and the orthogonality of the corresponding eigenvectors are a priori guaranteed, so that the proofs used by other authors are avoided. Moreover, we find a necessary and sufficient condition for the positiveness of all eigenvalues.File in questo prodotto:
