Abstract
It is known that all transverse plane acceleration waves that propagat e through a homogeneously deformed Mooney-Rivlin material do so withou t a change in amplitude. Here it is shown that the Mooney-Rivlin mater ial is the only incompressible isotropic hyperelastic material that pe rmits transverse plane acceleration waves to propagate in any directio n without a change in amplitude, regardless of the homogeneous prestra in.
