Abstract

Motivation for this study arises from the profound effect that grain boundary composition has on the engineering properties of commonly used structural materials. The interior, or core of the grain, and the surrounding host material are modelled as isotropic elastic solids, while the grain boundary itself is modelled as an anisotropic shell. Properties of the shell are thought of as being isotropic in any tangential direction, but different in the radial direction; we have called this condition spherical orthotropy.
