Note that shear strains may cause normal stresses for this material. Consider next an
orthotropic material. This material has three planes of symmetry. An example of a
material with three planes of symmetry is wood. Shown in the following figure is a cross-
section cut along the axis of the fibers thus this cross-section is a plane of symmetry. The
other planes of symmetry should be clear from the figure.
Starting with the
1 2
x x symmetry plane we would obtain again the result given by
equation (33). Assuming next that the
2 3
x x plane is a plane of symmetry we would use
the transformation

Finally, if we use the
1 3
x x plane we would obtain no new information. This result might
lead us to be so bold as to suggest that materials possessing two planes of symmetry
necessarily possess a third plane of symmetry. The resulting contracted form of Hookes
law for an orthotropic material contains 13-4=9 independent constants and is:

Note that unlike the monoclinic material the orthotropic material will not generate normal
stresses in the presence of shear strains only. This expression may be inverted to get the
strains in terms of the stresses and the coefficients may now be written using the usual
engineering constants.

The reader should be able to see the usual interpretation of the Youngs moduli and the
Poisson ratios.
Consider next a transversely isotropic material. This material has three planes of
symmetry and there is an axis about which arbitrary rotations do not change the material
properties. Such a case is shown below (typically a fiber embedded isotropic material a
composite material). The axis about which the properties are isotropic is
3
x and the
orthogonal rotation for this case would be

Note that this form is only for the case where the axis of symmetry is the

x axis.
Finally consider next an isotropic material. This material will be isotropic with respect to
rotations about the three axes

x ,x ,x . Note that the material cannot contain fibers with
different properties for this type of symmetry to exist. The orthogonal transformation for
the rotation about the

If we then proceed to apply the orthogonal transformation corresponding to the rotation
about the

bold as to suggest that materials possessing two axes of symmetry necessarily possess a
third axes of symmetry. Combining this result with the result given by equation (40) and
eliminating the redundancy we have the seven constraints

Hookes law for an isotropic material may also be written using indicial notation as

And Hookes elasticity tensor for an isotropic material takes the form

Solution of equations (4) through (6) for the shear strains is trivial. Solution of equations
(1) through (3) for the normal strains will requires some algebra. The first step is to add
the three equations to get the result

IV. Hookes Law for Isotropic Linear Materials with Thermal Effects
Included.
We consider here only the simplest case of a linear isotropic material subject to a
temperature field that is different then the reference temperature. The only non-zero
strains are given by
( )
( )
( )
xx o
yy o
zz o
T T

c o

where
o
T is the reference temperature and T is the temperature field and o is the thermal
expansion coefficient. The temperature field may be found from solution of the
conduction equation

T
c k T

Using equation (55) the temperature effects are included in Hookes law as
ij ij kk ij ij

T
E E
v v
c o o o oo A
+
= + + (64)
This simplest formulation results in the temperature field solution being uncoupled from
the displacement and stress solution. This is why in a typical linear FEA package thermal
stress problems require the solution of the conduction equation as an input to the stress
and deformation solution. It is possible for large deformation and for different material
models for the energy equation to include mechanical variables in which case the above
mentioned decoupled solution is not possible.
IV. Newtonian Fluids
The constitutive equation for a Newtonian fluid may be expressed as
C : D o = (65)
Recall again that the most general fourth order isotropic tensor may be written in terms of
three linearly independent terms as
ijkl ij kl ik jl il jk
C o o o o vo o = + + (66)
The symmetry of the stress tensor,
ij ji
o o = , reduces this expression to
( )
ijkl ij kl ik jl il jk
C o o o o o o = + + (67)
An additional assumption that well describes Newtonian fluids is Stokes hypothesis:
2
3
= (68)
This restriction reduces the number of coefficients to one resulting in the constitutive
equation for a Newtonian viscous fluid:
ij kk ij ij
D 2 D o o = + (69)
Or, after implementing Stokes hypothesis:
ij kk ij ij
2
D 2 D

o o = + (70)
