A simple experimental method is proposed for the determination of the elastic constants of orthotropic plates. This method employs the self-stabilizing feature of the pure twisting tests, from which relations among the independent elastic constants can be derived. Using filament-wound materials as test specimens, good experimental confirmation of the proposed method is found.

Abstract The analysis of bending and buckling of orthogonally stiffened plates may be simplified by conceptually replacing the plate-stiffener combination by an “equivalent” homogeneous orthotropic plate of constant thickness. This procedure requires the determination of the four elastic rigidity constants which occur in the theory of thin orthotropic plates. Methods are presented whereby these quantities may be determined analytically in terms of the elastic constants and geometrical configuration of the component parts of the structure.

A new experimental method is presented for determining trajectories of flow for non-steady-state processes which exhibit geometric similarity (quasi-steady-state processes (1)∗). One process that is normally regarded as quasi-steady-state (plane strain wedge indentation) is investigated using this method. It is shown that this process satisfies the requirements of geometric similarity within experimental accuracy. Results are presented for wedge angles of 30°, 60° and 90° and a range of indentation depths up to approximately 3 mm. Finally, it is suggested how this method can be combined with well-known orthogonal-grid techniques to provide information for the calculation of effective strains throughout the deforming region.
