A question on a notation used in hyperelastic literature

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The tilde sign in the equation $$w_{0}\left(e_{ij}\right)=\int s_{ij}d\tilde{e_{ij}}=\frac{1}{2}\,\underline{\underline{s}}:\underline{\underline{e}}$$ represents a differential form of the Green Lagrangian strain tensor, denoted as ##\tilde{e_{ij}}##. In this context, ##\underline{\underline{s}}## is identified as the 2nd Piola-Kirchhoff stress tensor, and ##w_{0}## signifies the strain energy in the material reference frame. This notation is prevalent in hyperelastic literature, distinguishing it from Voigt notation.

PREREQUISITES

Could someone please tell me what the tilde sign stands for in this equation:$$w_{0}\left(e_{ij}\right)=\int s_{ij}d\tilde{e_{ij}}=\frac{1}{2}\,\underline{\underline{s}}:\underline{\underline{e}}$$

where and ##\underline{\underline{e}}## is the Green Lagrangian strain tensor and ##\underline{\underline{s}}## is the 2nd Piola-Kirchoff stress tensor, if I'm not mistaken ##w_{0}## is the strain energy in the material reference frame.

I have been trying to find out but no luck yet. I thought it was the Voigt notation but apparently it isn't. I have seen this notation in a lot of literature related to hyperelastic materials which I think uses the same symbol, for instance:

p.s. I am not sure how to create inline equations here. I would appreciate it if someone edited this or told me how.

Enclose the equations in ## delimiters. (not $)
