- having two axes; "biaxial crystals"
- Having two axes; Having a value in two perpendicular directions. [In solid mechanics it generally means that normal stresses exist in two of the possible three directions. Note that they do not have to be equal in sign or magnitude.]
- (biaxiality) The condition of being biaxial
- (biaxiality) In a biaxial stress state, the ratio of the smaller to the larger principal stress.
- Possess two directions along which monochromatic light vibrating in any plane will travel with the same velocity. The optic axis lies just between these directions.
- pertaining to two distinct geometric or spatial axes.
- A double-refractive gemstone, which has two directions of single refraction or optic axes.
- term used to describe crystals with two directions of single refraction. These are minerals crystallizing in the orthorhombic, monoclinic and triclinic crystal systems
- Pertaining to both sides of the axis of a body or body part, i.e. medial and lateral foot.
- 1) a very strong glassfibre fabric in which two layers of continuous glassfibre filaments or strands are stitched together; the strands in one layer run at 90° to the strands in the other; in 45/45 biaxial, the strands in both layers are at 45° to the centreline of the material; in 0/90 biaxial, ...
