ratios are given by
G i =
∂x i
∂X i
,
J = G 1 G 2 G 3 .
The growth tensor for the element is
G = G 1 e 1 e 1 + G 2 e 2 e 2 + G 3 e 3 e 3 ,
(7.51)
where the e i are unit base vectors along and normal to the fibers in the reference
configuration.
For constituent α (α = κ, n), we define the partial lengths
dx

1/3 dx i

G

where the unit vectors e f , e c 1 , and e c 2 define the fiber and two cross-fiber directions,
respectively, and I = e f e f + e c 1 e c 1 + e c 2 e c 2 is the identity tensor.
