Abstract The sets of polynomial stress-strain relations for elastic points which are transversely hemitropic and transversely isotropic are presented as projections of free algebraic modules having 20 and 10 generators, respectively. Complete sets of relations for the projections are presented which allow the sets of interest to be identified as free submodules having 12 and 6 generators, respectively. The results are established using the Cartan decomposition of the representation of the adjoint action of the two-dimensional rotation and orthogonal groups on the space of three-by-three symmetric matrices. The results are compared to known representations for nonlinear transversely isotropic stress-strain relations and for linear, transversely hemitropic and transversely isotropic ones.
