Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
Consider a material with a stiffness tensor C that has no minor symmetry. If it had to be designed to withstand specific loads from various angles, how many independent constants would you work with?
💡 Hint: Explore the starting point before any reductions.
Question 2
You're tasked to explain to a team how major symmetry simplifies the design process in material engineering. What will you include in your explanation?
💡 Hint: Link back to energy implications and practical applications.
