Area modulus K = 4.5 105 pN/m >> shear modulus = 6-9 pN/m
Constant area: r02 = 2Rp2 + 2Rp(L Rp) + (r2 Rp2)
Radial stretch ratio: r2 r02/r2 = 1 + (Rp2/r2)(2L/Rp - 1)
Differentiation: dr2/(1 - r2) = 2dr/r
Boundary conditions: r2|r = 1 r2|r = Rp = 2L/Rp

A0 A0 = R02(0 - sin0 cos0)
cos0 = 1 - x0/R0
0 = cos-1(1 - x0/R0) Constant area:

sin0 = [1 (1 - x0/R0)2]1/2 A = A0 = R02{cos-1(1 - x0/R0)
(1 - x0/R0)[1 (1 - x0/R0)2]1/2}
Stretch ratios: x = dx/dx0 y = y/y0
Constant area: xy = 1 y = x-1
Expressing y as a function of x0:
y = y0y = R0sin0/x = R0sin[cos-1(1 - x0/R0)](dx0/dx)
Stress-strain relation: Tx = (/2)(x2 x-2)
Re-arranging: (/2)[(dx/dx0)2 (dx/dx0)-2] = 0A/y
