2. The condition of being orthotropic.
1966F. J. Plantema Sandwich Construction v. 118 Numerical results have been computed only for a few typical cases of orthotropy corresponding to corrugated⁓core sandwich plates and sandwich plates having standard glass-fabric laminate faces. 1974R. Szilard Theory & Anal. Plates iii. 375 If we assume that the principal directions of orthotropy coincide with the X and Y co⁓ordinate axes, it becomes evident that four elastic constants..are required for the description of the orthotropic stress-strain relationships. |
