Stiffness in sample coords.<br />
• Consider how to express the elastic properties of a<br />
single crystal in the sample coordinates. In this case<br />
we need to rotate the (4 th rank) tensor from crystal<br />
coordinates to sample coordinates using the<br />
orientation (matrix), a (see lecture A):<br />
c ijkl ' = a im a jn a ko a lp c mnop<br />
• Note how the transformation matrix appears four<br />
times because we are transforming a 4th rank tensor!<br />
• The axis transformation matrix, a, is also written as λ.
