Abstract: | Conclusions 1. A unique procedure for determination of the numerical characteristics of the degree of anisotropy of the strength and deformation properties of materials is proposed.2. The concepts of the deformability surface and the anisotropy surface of the deformability permit representing graphically the deformation properties of materials.3. The system of integral characteristics of the mechanical properties of materials opens up new possibilities in connection with the analysis and optimization of different reinforcement schemes.Institute of Polymer Mechanics, Academy of Sciences of the Latvian SSR, Riga.
