The Voight
Voight-Reuss-Hill
Reuss Hill model
The iso-strain (Voigt) and iso-stress (Reuss) models represent upper and lower bound
solutions to true values. For design it would be wise to take to most conservative value or,
alternatively, the Voigt-Reuss-Hill VRH model advocates computing both iso-stress and iso-
strain compliance and taking the average as a basis for the engineering constants.
