Directional and Coupled material component behavior?

Answer: In a layered shell section, there are two types of layers: Directional and Coupled. The Directional type of layered shell applies the uniaxial stress-strain curve defined in the material property in the S11, S22, and/or S12 directions, but each direction is independent of the others. For example, yielding in the S11 direction will not affect the S22 direction and Poisson's ratio will be 0.
