An anisotropic material is a material which does not behave the same way in all directions. Take wood for example. Wood is very strong along the grain. Against the grain, however, it will easily break.
The opposite of an anisotropic material is an isotropic material. Most metals (steel, aluminum) are isotropic materials. They respond the same way in all directions.

Difference between isotropic and anistropic material?
An isotropic material has properties which are independent of the direction in which they are measured whereas in an anisotropic material the properties do depend on the direction .
Material having different properties in different direction?
anisotropic materials have different properties in different directions.
What is difference between anisotropic material and orthotropic material?
an orthotropic material is one that has the different materials properties or strength in different octhogonal directions, but properties of anisotropic material being directionally dependent. thus Orthotropic materials are anisotropic.
Is concrete isotropic or anisotropic?
Concrete is an isotropic material with different strength properties with respect to the type of imposed loadings.
What does it mean to be anisotropic?
Anisotropic is when you view graphics and images at an oblique angle. It's like knowing what an object is in one direction but then your value of the object changes when viewed in different directions.
Is wood an anisotropic material?
Yes, wood is a naturally anisotropic material. It has 3 different orientations: - Longitudinal - parallel to the grain - Radial - across the growth rings - Tangential - tangent to the growth rings
What happens when a light ray enters an anisotropic material?
they make anistropical babies

What is nonisotropic?
Nonisotropic or anisotropic refers to a medium in which some characteristics depends on the direction in which the medium is studied. A very common anisotropic material is wood. It is much easier to split it along its grain than across the grain.
Is concrete isotropic or anisotropic?
Concrete is an isotropic material with different strength properties with respect to the type of imposed loadings.
What is the definition of material world?
The definition of a material world is a fake world.
Is carbon steel anisotropic?
yes
What is the definition of an organic material?
Carbon-containing material
What is Definition of material budget?
Define material budgets
Does iron crystal show anisotropic property?
no it does not.
