... evaluation in punch loading; to evaluate theeffect of material anisotropy for the geometry offormed shell; to determine the straindistribution in anisotropic shell. The experimental data of X‐ray diffraction analysis showed that friction at specimen/punch contact, which earlier was ignored, has a significant...

... studied on order to invesigate the accuracy of equations used to predict the anisotropic linear elastic behaviour of fabric for in plane and bending deformation. Bending, shear and tensile properties were measured using KES©F equipment. Results showed that the orthotropic model of anisotropy can...
