The purpose of this paper, Part IIB in the trilogy [ Int J Appl Glass Sci . 2018 (not available); Int J Appl Glass Sci . 2018 (not available); Int J Appl Glass Sci . 2018 (not available)], is to describe the continuum models employed to deduce the effects of differential thermal expansion in the clad optical fiber in addition to the nonlinear optical behaviors at high intensities of light. In this continuation of Part IIA, more of the state‐of‐the‐art in W‐S‐based continuum material models are reviewed here with specific examples provided based on canonical material systems suggested from the findings of Part I and treated in detail in Part III . Part II B pays particular attention to the optical fiber and its nonlinearities.
