The red curve is from the Mooney- Rivlin model fitting experimental data. The green straight line is from the linear model fitting the experimental data. Parameter values of the Mooney-Rivlin model and linear model fitting the experimental data are: c1 = 94.6 kPa, D1 = 6.81 kPa, c2 = 0, D2 = 2.0, YM = 570 kPa. Figure Legend:
