For a material isotropy and material frame indifference strain energy density W(F)=h(I1​,I2​,I3​), take B=FFT, I1​=trB, I2​=((trB)2−trB2)/2, I3​=detB=J2, J=detF>0. The chain rule and d(detF)=JF−T:dF give DW=2h1​F+2h2​(I1​I−B)F+2I3​h3​F−T. Multiplying by FT/J yields the displayed Cauchy stress tensor. Material isotropy allows an identity term and a quadratic term in B, as well as the term proportional to B.
