Strain-space model order reduction (MOR) techniques have recently been shown to achieve exceptional performance in terms of the tradeoff between runtime and accuracy achieved in computational homogenisation problems. In this article, we generalise such techniques to problems in large-deformation solid mechanics beyond the context of computational homogenisation. Arbitrary-valued, parameterised Dirichlet boundary conditions are satisfied by construction using a lifting with boundary-consistent fields computed offline. This allows us to pose a version of the Empirical Cubature Method (ECM) [24,25] in strain space and generalise the Empirically Corrected Cluster Cubature (E3C) [46,48,49] as well as Empirical Material Sampling and Linearisation (EMSL) [17] beyond computational homogenisation problems. The strain-space versions of EMSL, ECM, and E3C are compared against each other and a standard displacement-space formulation of Energy Conserving Weighting and Sampling (ECSW) [15]. On two hyperelastic example problems with parameterised material behaviour and deformation, the strain-space methods outperform the displacement-space alternative in the tradeoff between runtime and accuracy. E3C and EMSL in particular facilitate 10,000 and 100,000-fold speedups, respectively, while retaining high levels of accuracy. EMSL is shown to be the method of choice when online and offline runtime budgets are very limited, while E3C yields exceptional levels of accuracy when slightly more runtime is acceptable.
