Abstract

A two-dimensiona l, orthotropic, nonlinear elastic stress-strain law is proposed herein for gold-coated tricot metallic mesh material of diamond-weave pattern. This constitutive relation accommodates the geometrically nonlinear behavior due to the large displacement of the diamond-shaped cell as well as the nonlinear behavior due to its woven configuration. Comparison with experimental data showed that the proposed constitutive law provides a reasonably good description of the stress-strain behavior of this material.
