• Sudden growth of initially vanishingly small defects
A theoretical interpretation
Random distributions of flaws, in the order of 0.1 μm in average diameter, are expected to be present in typical elastomers. Physically, they can correspond to:
• Actual voids
• Weak regions of the underlying polymer network
• Particles of dust
• Others…

• We have proposed a new strategy (IH) to study the phenomenon of cavitation in nonlinearly elastic solids subjected to general loading conditions.
• The proposed approach is general yet mathematically tractable and thus provides the means to study open problems of cavitation in solids.
• When applied to Neo-Hookean solids containing an isotropic distribution of vacuous defects, the IH method leads to results that significantly improve on the only available bound and are in agreement with FEM calculations for a single defect.
• The results indicate that the onset of cavitation depends very critically on the entire state of stress, not just on the hydrostatic component
