Abstract. Anisotropic elasticity is expected to contribute significantly to material deformation and should be considered in nature. Therefore, in this study, the correlations between elastic and plastic strains are investigated, with emphasis on the principal axes. In an experiment, strains are measured in eight directions during tensile tests, and Mohr’s circles are derived for elastic and plastic strains. The planar anisotropy of elasticity and plasticity for some mechanical properties is confirmed, and the angle deviations between the principal axes of stress and strain are compared for elasticity and plasticity. In the case of aluminum, for both elasticity and plasticity, the planar anisotropy of its mechanical properties indicates four-fold symmetry, and the principal axes of elastic and plastic strains are identical, with some angle deviations from the principal axes of stress.
