Name

Lame (IsotropicRank4TensorLame) — Isotropic rank 4 tensor in terms of Lame coefficients.

Synopsis

IsotropicRank4TensorLame(lmbda, mu)

Details

Base class: IsotropicRank4Tensor
Parameters:

lmbda

Lambda. Type: A real number.

mu

Shear modulus. Type: A real number.

Description

IsotropicRank4TensorLame is a rank 4 tensor with isotropic 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 the shear modulus, or $(C_{11}-C_{12})/2$ .
