Name

Lame (CubicRank4TensorLame) — Cubic rank 4 tensor in terms of Lame coefficients.

Synopsis

CubicRank4TensorLame(lmbda, mu, aniso)

Details

Base class: CubicRank4Tensor
Parameters:

lmbda

lambda. Type: A real number.

mu

Type: A real number.

aniso

Zener's anisotropy index. (1.0 is isotropic.) Type: A real number.

Description

CubicRank4TensorLame is a rank 4 tensor with cubic symmetry, expressed in Lamé coefficients.

lmbda is the Lamé $\lambda$ coefficient, which is equal to $C_{12}$ . (The word “lambda” is a Python keyword, so it can't be used as a variable unless it's spelled wrong.)

mu is the Lamé $\mu$ coefficient, equal to $(C_{11}-C_{12})/2$ .

aniso is the anisotropy coefficient, equal to $2C_{44}/(C_{11}-C_{12})$ .
