Notes/
(1) If (C11*C22*...*C44 0) the material defaults to an isotropic linear elastic model using Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio.
(2) Default is n1 = e1 = {1, 0, 0}, n2 = e2 = {0, 1, 0}, and n3 = e3 = {0, 0, 1} where [e1, e2, e3] is the triad of unit base vectors used for the reference rectangular Cartesian axes. The orthotropic elasticity tensor E, is referred to the global coordinate axes via the rotation:
E'ijkl = Eklmn Rki Rlj Rmk Rnl
where R = [n1, n2, n3]. Note that the orthotropic direction vectors are restricted to be orthogonal to each other, viz.,
nI .
nJ = IJ
(3) The element damping matrix is computed as:
c = Rayleigh_mass_damp*m + Rayleigh_stiffness_damp*k
(4) Only applicable to porous media models.
(5) Tensile stresses are positive.
