Abstract
For a homogeneous anisotropic linearly elastic solid, the general expression of Young’s modulus E(n), embracing all classes that characterize the anisotropy, is given. A constrained extremum problem is then formulated for the evaluation of those directions n at which E(n) attains stationary values. Cubic and transversely isotropic symmetry classes are dealt with, and explicit solutions for such directions n are provided. For each case, relevant properties of these directions and corresponding values of the modulus are discussed as well. Results are shown in terms of suitable combinations of elements of the elastic tensor that embody the discrepancy from isotropy.Items in DSpace are protected by copyright, with all rights reserved, unless otherwise indicated.
