To understand the dynamic response of transversely isotropic material under explosion load, the analysis is done with the help of ABAQUS software and the constitutive equations of transversely isotropic material with different angle of isotropic section. The result is given: when the angle of isotropic section is settled, the velocity and acceleration of measure points decrease with the increasing distance from the explosion borehole. The velocity and acceleration in the loading direction are larger than those in the normal direction of the loading direction and their attenuation are much faster. When the angle of isotropic section is variable, the evolution curves of peak velocity and peak acceleration in the loading direction with the increasing angles are notching parabolic curves. They get their minimum values when the angle is equal to 45 degree. But the evolution curves of peak velocity and peak acceleration in the normal direction of the loading direction with the increasing angles are overhead parabolic curves. They get their maximum values when the angle is equal to 45 degree.

Elastic-plastic transitional stresses in a transversely isotropic thick-walled cylinder subjected to internal pressure and steady-state temperature have been derived by using Seth's transition theory. The combined effects of pressure and temperature has been presented graphically and discussed. It has been observed that at room temperature, thick-walled cylinder made of isotropic material yields at a high pressure at the internal surface as compared to cylinder made of transversely isotropic material. With the introduction of thermal effects isotropic/transversely isotropic cylinder yields at a lower pressure whereas cylinder made of isotropic material requires less percentage increase in pressure to become fully-plastic from its initial yielding as compared to cylinder made of transversely isotropic material.

Kevlar® KM2 fiber is a transversely isotropic material. Its tensile stress-strain response in the axial direction is linear and elastic until failure. However, the overall deformation in the transverse directions is nonlinear and nonelastic, although it can be treated linearly and elastically in infinitesimal strain range. For a linear, elastic, and transversely isotropic material, five material constants are needed to describe its stress-strain response. In this paper, stress-strain behavior obtained from experiments on a single Kevlar KM2 fiber are presented and discussed. The effects of loading rate and the influence of axial loading on transverse and transverse loading on axial stress-strain responses are also discussed.
