Optional additional supplies include bath salts for soaking your feet, cuticle trimmers, cuticle oil, and lotion for a massage afterwards. 2. Remove any pre-existing nail polish. Although it may seem obvious, taking off your old nail polish is an important first step to giving yourself a pedicure.
exists and is an alternate of . An isotropic material is one which looks the same in every direction. We cannot define any special direction using the material properties. In other words, none of the properties depend the orientation; it is perfectly rotationally symmetric. Note that in order to be isotropic the material must be homogenous on the length scale of interest, ie the same at every point in the material.
Such materials have only 2 independent variables (i.e. elastic constants) in their stiffness and compliance matrices, as opposed to the 21 elastic constants in the general anisotropic case. The two elastic constants are usually expressed as the Young's modulus E and the Poisson's ratio n. However, the alternative elastic constants K (bulk modulus) and/or G (shear modulus) can also be used. For isotropic materials, G and K can be found from E and n by a set of equations, and vice-versa.
