Abstract

A simple method to obtain the highest and lowest Young’s modulus for a material of the hexagonal class is presented. It is based upon the use of tensor invariants of plane anisotropic elasticity; in fact, the cylindrical symmetry of the elastic tensor allows for transforming the 3D original problem into a planar one, with a considerable simplification.
