MS_decomp
MS_DECOMP - Browaeys and Chevrot decomposition of the elasticity matrix.
Apply a decomposition of the elasticity tensor C, after:
Browaeys and Chevrot (GJI, v159, 667-678, 2004)
[Ciso] = MS_decomp(C)
Isotropic projection of the elastic tensor.
[Ciso,Chex] = MS_decomp(C)
Isotropic, and hexagonal parts of the elastic tensor
[Ciso,Chex,Ctet,Cort,Cmon,Ctri] = MS_decomp(C)
All parts of the elastic tensor
Notes:
Output matricies are the partial components of the input elasticity
matrix which maximise the norm of the high symmetry parts. This
function assumes that C is in its optimal orientation for
decomposition (use MS_axes to make this so).
