Name

Mechanical:Elasticity:LargeStrain:Anisotropic:Orthorhombic — Orthorhombic large-strain elasticity.

Details

Description

The anisotropic large strain elasticity Properties specify that the Stress depends nonlinearly on the gradients of the Displacement, u :

σij=Cijklϵkl
(6.31)

where σij is the Stress, Cijkl is the modulus cijkl, and

ϵij=12(uixj+ujxi+ukxiukxj).
(6.32)

This form of the geometric strain is invariant under rigid rotations, unlike its linear variant, Eq. (6.2).

The crystal symmetry of the material is reflected in the symmetry of the modulus, cijkl. Materials containing an anisotropic elastic Property must also contain an orientation property.
