If P and S are -rank tensors, show that coefficients are needed to write each component of P as a linear combination of the components of S. Show that is the number of components in a -rank tensor. If the components of the -rank tensor are , then equation gives the components of P in terms of the components of S. If P and S are both symmetric, show that we need only 36different non-zero components in . Hint: Consider the number of different components in P and S when they are symmetric. Comment: The stress and strain tensors can both be shown to be symmetric. Further symmetry reduces the 36components of C in (7.5)to 21or less.
Show that the first parenthesis in (3.5) is a symmetric tensor and the second parenthesis is antisymmetric.
Verify that (5.5) agrees with a Laplace development, say on the first row (Chapter 3, Section 3). Hints: You will find 6 terms corresponding to the 6 non-zero values of . First let; then j, k can be 2, 3 or 3, 2. These two terms give you times its cofactor. Next letwithandand show that you get times its cofactor. Finally let. Watch all the signs carefully.
