Abstract: We consider a polycrystal constituted from orthorhombic single crystals for which one particular principal axis of the crystallites is always oriented parallel to a particular direction; in the ...

Abstract: A material consisting of a matrix in which aligned fibers of uniform circular cross section are embedded is considered. A method is developed for computing the effective axial shear modulus ...

Abstract: We consider a large deformation plane-strain problem involving a compressible orthotropic solid subjected to uniaxial compressive loading along one of the principle directions which is aligned ...
