Dear Samyak,

May be to be more precise, I would add that if you use the finite strain
incompressible law, then the multiplier (call it lambda)  used to
prescribe the incompressiblity constraint is to be added to the spheric
part of the Hyperelastic Law used

sigma = Hyperelastic_law_used - lambda Id(3)

So that the hydrostatic pressure is -1/3*Tr(sigma) contains two terms.

Yves.
