Torsion of cylindrically anisotropic nano/microtubes from seven-constant tetragonal crystals. Poynting’s effect

Resumo

In the paper presented, we continue the research in the elastic properties of seven-constant tetragonal crystals and nano/microtubes. Our previous study concerned tension of this type of structures, and here we are dealing with their torsion, Poynting’s effect or axial extension under torsion with no tensile force, and torsional stiffness. It is demonstrated that there exists inverse Poynting’s effect: the tubes experience torsion under tension without applying a torque.
