| | Hi there, I am Andrew Berryhill. Credit authorising is where my main earnings arrives from. For years he's been living in Mississippi and he doesn't plan on changing it. One of the extremely very best issues in the world for him is doing ballet and he'll be beginning something else along with it.<br><br>Take a look at my blog post ...

| An '''orthotropic material''' has two or three mutually orthogonal twofold axes of [[rotational symmetry]] so that its mechanical properties are, in general, different along each axis. Orthotropic materials are thus anisotropic; their properties depend on the direction in which they are measured. An [[isotropic]] material, in contrast, has the same properties in every direction.
| |
| | |
| One common example of an orthotropic material with two axis of symmetry would be a polymer reinforced by parallel glass or graphite fibers. The strength and stiffness of such a composite material will usually be greater in a direction parallel to the fibers than in the transverse direction. Another example would be a biological membrane, in which the properties in the plane of the membrane will be different from those in the perpendicular direction. Such materials are sometimes called '''[[Transverse isotropy|transverse isotropic]].'''
| |
| | |
| A familiar example of an orthotropic material with three mutually perpendicular axis is wood, in which the properties (such as strength and stiffness) along its grain and in each of the two perpendicular directions are different. [[Hankinson's equation]] provides a means to quantify the difference in strength in different directions. Another example is a metal which has been rolled to form a sheet; the properties in the rolling direction and each of the two transverse directions will be different due to the anisotropic structure that develops during rolling.
| |
| | |
| It is important to keep in mind that a material which is anisotropic on one length scale may be isotropic on another (usually larger) length scale. For instance, most metals are polycrystalline with very small [[Crystallite|grains]]. Each of the individual grains may be anisotropic, but if the material as a whole comprises many randomly oriented grains, then its measured mechanical properties will be an average of the properties over all possible orientations of the individual grains.

| | |
| === Anisotropic material relations ===
| |
| Material behavior is represented in physical theories by [[constitutive relation]]s. A large class of physical behaviors can be represented by linear material models that take the form of a second-order [[tensor]]. The material tensor provides a relation between two [[Euclidean vector|vector]]s and can be written as
| |
| :<math>
| |
| \mathbf{f} = \boldsymbol{K}\cdot\mathbf{d}
| |
| </math>
| |
| where <math>\mathbf{d},\mathbf{f}</math> are two vectors representing physical quantities and <math>\boldsymbol{K}</math> is the second-order material tensor. If we express the above equation in terms of components with respect to an [[orthonormal]] [[coordinate system]], we can write
| |
| :<math>
| |
| f_i = K_{ij}~d_j ~.
| |
| </math>
| |
| [[Einstein_notation| Summation over repeated indices]] has been assumed in the above relation. In matrix form we have
| |
| :<math>
| |
| \underline{\mathbf{f}} = \underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{K}}}~\underline{\mathbf{d}}
| |
| \implies \begin{bmatrix} f_1\\f_2\\f_3 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} K_{11} & K_{12} & K_{13} \\ K_{21} & K_{22} & K_{23} \\
| |
| K_{31} & K_{32} & K_{33} \end{bmatrix} \begin{bmatrix} d_1\\d_2\\d_3 \end{bmatrix}

| === Condition for material symmetry ===
| |
| The material matrix <math>\underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{K}}}</math> has a symmetry with respect to a given [[orthogonal transformation]] (<math>\boldsymbol{A}</math>) if it does not change when subjected to that transformation.
| |
| For invariance of the material properties under such a transformation we require
| |
| :<math>
| |
| \boldsymbol{A}\cdot\mathbf{f} = \boldsymbol{K}\cdot(\boldsymbol{A}\cdot\boldsymbol{d}) \implies \mathbf{f} = (\boldsymbol{A}^{-1}\cdot\boldsymbol{K}\cdot\boldsymbol{A})\cdot\boldsymbol{d}
| |
| </math>
| |
| Hence the condition for material symmetry is (using the definition of an orthogonal transformation)
| |
| :<math>
| |
| \boldsymbol{K} = \boldsymbol{A}^{-1}\cdot\boldsymbol{K}\cdot\boldsymbol{A} = \boldsymbol{A}^{T}\cdot\boldsymbol{K}\cdot\boldsymbol{A}
| |
| </math>
| |
| Orthogonal transformations can be represented in Cartesian coordinates by a <math>3\times 3</math> matrix <math>\underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{A}}}</math> given by
| |
| :<math>
| |
| \underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{A}}} = \begin{bmatrix} A_{11} & A_{12} & A_{13} \\ A_{21} & A_{22} & A_{23} \\
| |
| A_{31} & A_{32} & A_{33} \end{bmatrix}~.
| |
| </math>
| |
| Therefore the symmetry condition can be written in matrix form as
| |
| :<math>
| |
| \underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{K}}} = \underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{A}^T}}~\underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{K}}}~\underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{A}}}
| |
| </math>
| |
| | |
| === Orthotropic material properties ===
| |
| An orthotropic material has three [[orthogonal]] [[plane of symmetry|symmetry plane]]s. If we choose an orthonormal coordinate system such that the axes coincide with the normals to the three symmetry planes, the transformation matrices are
| |
| :<math>
| |
| \underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{A}_1}} = \begin{bmatrix}-1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} ~;~~
| |
| \underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{A}_2}} = \begin{bmatrix}1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & -1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} ~;~~
| |
| \underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{A}_3}} = \begin{bmatrix}1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & -1 \end{bmatrix}
| |
| </math>
| |
| It can be shown that if the matrix <math>\underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{K}}}</math> for a material is invariant under reflection about two orthogonal planes then it is also invariant under reflection about the third orthogonal plane.
| |
| | |
| Consider the reflection <math>\underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{A}_3}}</math> about the <math>1-2\,</math> plane. Then we have
| |
| :<math>
| |
| \underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{K}}} = \underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{A}^T_3}}~\underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{K}}}~\underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{A}_3}} = \begin{bmatrix} K_{11} & K_{12} & -K_{13} \\ K_{21} & K_{22} & -K_{23} \\
| |
| -K_{31} & -K_{32} & K_{33} \end{bmatrix}
| |
| </math>
| |
| The above relation implies that <math>K_{13} = K_{23} = K_{31} = K_{32} = 0</math>. Next consider a reflection <math>\underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{A}_2}}</math> about the <math>1-3\,</math> plane. We then have
| |
| :<math>
| |
| \underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{K}}} = \underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{A}^T_2}}~\underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{K}}}~\underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{A}_2}} = \begin{bmatrix} K_{11} & -K_{12} & 0 \\ -K_{21} & K_{22} & 0 \\
| |
| 0 & 0 & K_{33} \end{bmatrix}
| |
| </math>
| |
| That implies that <math>K_{12} = K_{21} = 0</math>. Therefore the material properties of an orthotropic material are described by the matrix

| == Orthotropy in linear elasticity ==
| |
| | |
| === Anisotropic elasticity ===
| |
| In [[linear elasticity]], the relation between [[stress (physics)|stress]] and [[infinitesimal strain theory|strain]] depend on the type of material under consideration. This relation is known as [[Hooke's law]]. For anisotropic materials Hooke's law can be written as<ref name=Lekh>Lekhnitskii, S. G., 1963, '''Theory of Elasticity of an Anisotropic Elastic Body''', Holden-Day Inc.</ref>
| |
| :<math>\boldsymbol{\sigma} = \mathsf{c}\cdot\boldsymbol{\varepsilon}</math>
| |
| where <math>\boldsymbol{\sigma}</math> is the stress [[tensor]], <math>\boldsymbol{\varepsilon}</math> is the strain tensor, and <math>\mathsf{c}</math> is the elastic [[stiffness tensor]]. If the tensors in the above expression are described in terms of components with respect to an [[orthonormal]] [[coordinate system]] we can write
| |
| :<math>\sigma_{ij} = c_{ijk\ell}~ \varepsilon_{k\ell}</math>
| |
| where summation has been assumed over repeated indices. Since the stress and strain tensors are [[symmetric tensor|symmetric]], and since the stress-strain relation in linear elasticity can be derived from a [[strain energy density function]], the following symmetries hold for linear elastic materials
| |
| :<math>c_{ijk\ell} = c_{jik\ell} ~,~~c_{ijk\ell} = c_{ij\ell k} ~,~~ c_{ijk\ell} = c_{k\ell ij} ~.</math>
| |
| Because of the above symmetries, the stress-strain relation for linear elastic materials can be expressed in matrix form as

| :<math>
| |
| \begin{bmatrix}\sigma_{11}\\ \sigma_{22} \\ \sigma_{33} \\ \sigma_{23} \\ \sigma_{31} \\ \sigma_{12} \end{bmatrix} =

| The stiffness matrix <math>\underline{\underline{\mathsf{C}}}</math> satisfies a given symmetry condition if it does not change when subjected to the corresponding [[orthogonal transformation]]. The orthogonal transformation may represent symmetry with respect to a [[point symmetry|point]], an [[axis of symmetry|axis]], or a [[plane of symmetry|plane]].

| === Stiffness and compliance matrices in orthotropic elasticity ===

| An orthotropic elastic material has three [[orthogonal]] [[plane of symmetry|symmetry plane]]s. If we choose an orthonormal coordinate system such that the axes coincide with the normals to the three symmetry planes, the transformation matrices are

| |
| We can show that if the matrix <math>\underline{\underline{\mathsf{C}}}</math> for a linear elastic material is invariant under reflection about two orthogonal planes then it is also invariant under reflection about the third orthogonal plane.
| |
| | |
| If we consider the reflection <math>\underline{\underline{\mathbf{A}_3}}</math> about the <math>1-2\,</math> plane, then we have

| === Bounds on the moduli of orthotropic elastic materials ===
| |
| The strain-stress relation for orthotropic linear elastic materials can be written in Voigt notation as
| |
| :<math> | |
| \underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{\varepsilon}}} = \underline{\underline{\mathsf{S}}}~\underline{\underline{\boldsymbol{\sigma}}}
| |
| </math>
| |
| where the compliance matrix <math>\underline{\underline{\mathsf{S}}}</math> is given by
| |
| :<math>
| |
| \underline{\underline{\mathsf{S}}} =
| |
| \begin{bmatrix}
| |
| S_{11} & S_{12} & S_{13} & 0 & 0 & 0 \\
| |
| S_{12} & S_{22} & S_{23} & 0 & 0 & 0 \\
| |
| S_{13} & S_{23} & S_{33} & 0 & 0 & 0 \\
| |
| 0 & 0 & 0 & S_{44} & 0 & 0 \\
| |
| 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & S_{55} & 0\\
| |
| 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & S_{66} \end{bmatrix}
| |
| </math>
| |
| The compliance matrix is [[symmetric matrix|symmetric]] and must be [[Positive-definite matrix|positive definite]] for the [[strain energy density function|strain energy density]] to be positive. This implies from [[Sylvester's criterion]] that all the principal [[minor (linear algebra)|minor]]s of the matrix are positive,<ref name=Ting>Ting, T. C. T. and Chen, T., 2005, ''Poisson's ratio for anisotropic elastic materials can have no bounds,'', Q. J. Mech. Appl. Math., 58(1), pp. 73-82.</ref> i.e.,
| |
| :<math>
| |
| \Delta_k := \det(\underline{\underline{\mathsf{S}_k}}) > 0
| |
| </math>
| |
| where <math>\underline{\underline{\mathsf{S}_k}}</math> is the <math>k\times k</math> principal [[submatrix]] of <math>\underline{\underline{\mathsf{S}}}</math>.
| |
| | |
| Then,
| |
| :<math>
| |
| \begin{align}
| |
| \Delta_1 > 0 & \implies \quad S_{11} > 0 \\
| |
| \Delta_2 > 0 & \implies \quad S_{11}S_{22} - S_{12}^2 > 0 \\
| |
| \Delta_3 > 0 & \implies \quad (S_{11}S_{22}-S_{12}^2)S_{33}-S_{11}S_{23}^2+2S_{12}S_{23}S_{13}-S_{22}S_{13}^2 >0 \\
| |
| \Delta_4 > 0 & \implies \quad S_{44}\Delta_3 > 0 \implies S_{44} > 0\\
| |
| \Delta_5 > 0 & \implies \quad S_{44}S_{55}\Delta_3 > 0 \implies S_{55} > 0 \\
| |
| \Delta_6 > 0 & \implies \quad S_{44}S_{55}S_{66}\Delta_3 > 0 \implies S_{66} > 0
| |
| \end{align}
| |
| </math>
| |
| We can show that this set of conditions implies that<ref name=Ting1>Ting, T. C. T., 1996, ''Positive definiteness of anisotropic elastic constants,'', Mathematics and Mechanics of Solids, 1, pp. 301-314.</ref>
