Isotropic materials have only 2 independent variables (i.e. elastic constants) in their stiffness and compliance matrices, as opposed to the 21 elastic constants in the general anisotropicanisotropic case.
Isotropic materialIsotropic material
Eg: Metallic alloys and thermo-set polymers
The two elastic constants are usually expressed as the Young's modulus E and the Poisson's ratio .
Alternatively, elastic constants K (bulk modulus) and/or G (shear modulus) can also be used. For isotropic materials
G and K can be found from E and by a set of equations, and vice-versa.
Hooke's Law in Compliance Form
Hooke's Law in Stiffness Form
An isotropic material subjected to uniaxial tension in x direction, xx is the only non-zero stress. The strains in
the specimen are
Youngs Modulus from Uniaxial Tension
The modulus of elasticity in tension, Young's modulus E, is the ratio of stress to strain on the loading plane along the loading direction.
2nd Law of Thermodynamics and understanding that under uniaxial tension, material must elongate in length implies:
E > 0
Shear Modulus for Pure Shear
Isotropic material subjected to pure shear, for instance, a cylindrical bar under torsion in the xy sense, xy is the
only non-zero stress. The strains in the specimen are
Shear modulus G:Ratio of shear stress to engineering shear strain on the loading plane
2nd Law of Thermodynamics and understanding that a positive shear stress leads to a positive shear strain implies
G > 0
Since both G and E are required to be positive, the quantity in the denominator of G must also be positive. This requirement places a lower bound lower bound restriction on the range for Poisson's ratiorestriction on the range for Poisson's ratio, ,
> -1
G=E/2(1+)
Bulk Modulus for Hydrostatic stress
For an isotropic material subjected to hydrostatic pressure , all shear stress will be zero and the normal stress will be uniform
Also note: K > 0
Under hydrostatic load, material will change its volume. Its resistance to do so is termed as bulk modulus K, or modulus of compression.

relative volume change
The fact that both bulk modulus K and the elastic modulus E are required to be positive, it sets an upper bound of Poisson's ratio
< 1/2
K=E/ 3(1-2)
Orthotropic material has at least 2 orthogonal planes of symmetry, where material properties are independent of direction within each plane.
Eg: Certain engineering materials, 2-ply fiber-reinforced composites, piezoelectric materials (e.g.Rochelle salt)
Orthotropic material require 9 independent variables (i.e. elastic constants) in their constitutive matrices.

The 9 elastic constants in orthotropic constitutive equations are comprised of
3 Young's modulii Ex, Ey, Ez,
3 Poisson's ratios yz, zx, xy,
3 shear modulii Gyz, Gzx, Gxy.
