“…To this end, the methods in mechkit are focussed on secondand fourth-order tensors. Main motivations can thus be found in the research concerning linear elasticity (Bertram & Glüge, 2015), (Mandel, 1965), (Fedorov, 1968), (Mehrabadi & Cowin, 1990), (Thomson, 1856), (Cowin & Mehrabadi, 1992), (Rychlewski, 2000), (Spencer, 1970), (Böhlke & Brüggemann, 2001), (Brannon, 2018) and the description of microstructures of fiber-reinforced composite materials (Bauer & Böhlke, 2021), (Ken-Ichi, 1984), (Advani & Tucker III, 1987).…”
