Oblique Structures Developed in Homogeneous Anisotropic Material

<p> Layers of plasticene lubricated with talcum powder were
compressed in directions perpendicular to the layering.
Normal kink bands oblique to the principal compression
direction were produced. These structures were predicted
by Cosgrove (1972) after a theory developed by Biot (1965).
Other multilayers, with the layering oblique to the
principal compression direction, were compressed and these
developed instabilities also. </p> <p> The normal kink bands were analysed geometrically. It was found that variation in layer thickness provided the
best description and also provided a statement of the state
of strain of the final deformation. </p> / Thesis / Bachelor of Science (BSc)
