Abstract
There are five kinds of transversely isotropic groups which define the symmetry properties of three dimensional materials which are referred to as being transversely isotropic. In this part, we derive the compl ete representations for three dimensional transversely isotropic scala r-valued, vector-valued, symmetric tensor-valued and skew-symmetric te nsor-valued functions of symmetric tensors, skew-symmetric tensors and vectors. The irreducibility of the representations is proved in Part III.
