Abstract
We formulate the governing equations for a thermoelastic-plastic material, which has orthotropic symmetry for both its thermal and its mechanical response. This theory may model, for example, the behaviour of a uniaxially fibre-reinforced metal matrix composite, or a cross-ply or balanced angle-ply laminate of fibre-reinforced metal matrix material. As an example we analyse the distortion of channel sections of such a material under thermal loading.
