On an antiplane shear , the first strain invariant satisfy , . Restricting an isotropic objective strain energy density to this family determines only derivatives tangent to the family. It fixes and , but does not specify the whole Cauchy stress tensor. For example the neo-Hookean solid energy gives on this family. Even though the reference state is stress free, this is not generally a scalar multiple of .
