Реферат: The concept of representative directions allows for automatic generation of multi-axial constitutive equations, starting from simplified uni-axial material models. In this paper, a modification of the concept is considered suitable for the analysis of fibrous polymeric materials, which are anisotropic in the as-received state. The modification of the concept incorporates an orientation probability density function (OPDF), which explicitly accounts for the material anisotropy. Two versions of the concept are available. The first version utilizes the homogeneous distribution of the representative directions, with the entire anisotropy being contained in the weighting factors. The second encapsulates the anisotropy in the distribution of the representative directions. Due to its nature, the second version allows for a more efficient use of computational power. To promote this efficient version of the concept, we present new algorithms generating required sets of representative directions that match a given OPDF. These methods are based (i) on the minimization of a potential energy, (ii) on the equilibration method, and (iii) on the use of Voronoi cells. These three methods are tested and compared in terms of various OPDFs. The applicability of the computationally efficient modeling method to mechanical behavior of an anisotropic polymeric material is demonstrated. In particular, a calibration procedure is suggested for the practically important case when the OPDF is not known a-priori.
