Analysis of stress and strain concentration around a centralized elliptical hole in a monodomain liquid crystal elastomer sheet

•The strain and stress concentration behaviors of a monodomain LCE sheet with an elliptical hole subjected to uniaxial stretches are studied using finite element methods.•Liquid crystal elastomers exhibit severer stress and strain concentration than neoHookean, and such concentration is further aggr...
