In thermoelastic orthotropic materials, there are three mutually perpendicular planes of symmetry. The following parameters are required:
The density \(\rho\)
The specific heat \(c_p\)
The Young modulus in direction 1: \(E_1\)
The Young modulus in direction 2: \(E_2\)
The Young modulus in direction 3: \(E_3\)
The Poisson ratio \(\nu_{12}\)
The Poisson ratio \(\nu_{13}\)
The Poisson ratio \(\nu_{23}\)
The shear modulus \(G_{12}\)
The shear modulus \(G_{13}\)
The shear modulus \(G_{23}\)
The coefficient of thermal expansion \(\alpha_1\)
The coefficient of thermal expansion \(\alpha_2\)
The coefficient of thermal expansion \(\alpha_3\)
The elastic stiffness tensor for an orthotropic material is written in the Voigt notation as:
The thermal expansion tensor is:
