Required - Verification test for Incompressible hyperelastic models

Hi,

I am working with a finite element code implemented in C++ in my research group. Recentl I implemneted an incompressible finite strain element.

 Currently I am making use of verification tests to check whether my element runs accurately for various hyperelastic strain-energy models. I have succesfully completed a verification test using the Mooney-rivlin strain-energy density function. However, I have been unable to find verification/benchmark tests which I may use to test other strain-energy density functions.

Could anyone provide me with a link( any FEA commercial software manual or a journal paper)  to a verification test for imcompressible materials using any of the following strain-energy density dunctions :

Gent

Arruda-Boyce

Neo-Hookean

Kirchhoff

Thank you.

The easiest way is to use manufactured solutions.  For the basic concept see http://www.imechanica.org/node/1357 and
