Anisotropic Material 1

[s89t3]

Can anyone help me locate in the user manual/documentation the explaination about the anisotropic properties: D1111, D1122, D2222, D1133 etc;

Thanks

Those are the components of the elasticity tensor,D,
such that stress_tensor=D*strain_tensor. I think most of the elasticity or FEM books have them explained.
Also, the number of hits obtained for "elasiticity tensor" by searching the internet is overwhelming.



Anyway, see:
