It'd probably be easier to do a torsion experiment as the anelastic
behavior of the material is probably not known, especially for layered
or composite materials. Check out the book by Zener on anelastic and
elastic behavior of metals. That should give you a good starting
point (this is the Zener diode guy, classic text and still applicable
today).

and if you find any papers, please post, I'm also interested in this.
