Invariant characteristic representations for classical and micropolar anisotropic elasticity tensors (Q1910624)

By extending and developing the classical linear elasticity, a new type of representation for classical and micropolar anisotropic elasticity tensors is introduced. The new representation provides general expressions for characteristic forms of two kinds of elasticity tensors under the material symmetry restriction. For all types of material symmetries, such new representations are constructed explicitly in terms of certain invariant constants and unit vectors in directions of material symmetry axes.
