==Mandel notation== For a symmetric tensor of second rank <math display="block"> \boldsymbol{\sigma}= \begin{bmatrix} \sigma_{11} & \sigma_{12} & \sigma_{13} \\ \sigma_{21} & \sigma_{22} & \sigma_{23} \\ \sigma_{31} & \sigma_{32} & \sigma_{33} \end{bmatrix} </math> only six components are distinct, the three on the diagonal and the others being off-diagonal. Thus it can be expressed, in Mandel notation,<ref>{{cite journal | title = Généralisation de la théorie de plasticité de WT Koiter | author = Jean Mandel | journal = International Journal of Solids and Structures | volume = 1 | pages = 273–295 | date = 1965 | issue = 3 | doi=10.1016/0020-7683(65)90034-x}}</ref> as the vector <math display="block"> \tilde \sigma ^M = \langle \sigma_{11}, \sigma_{22}, \sigma_{33}, \sqrt 2 \sigma_{23}, \sqrt 2 \sigma_{13}, \sqrt 2 \sigma_{12} \rangle. </math> The main advantage of Mandel notation is to allow the use of the same conventional operations used with vectors, for example: <math display="block"> \tilde \sigma : \tilde \sigma = \tilde \sigma^M \cdot \tilde \sigma^M = \sigma_{11}^2 + \sigma_{22}^2 + \sigma_{33}^2 + 2 \sigma_{23}^2 + 2 \sigma_{13}^2 + 2 \sigma_{12}^2. </math> A symmetric tensor of rank four satisfying <math> D_{ijkl} = D_{jikl} </math> and <math> D_{ijkl} = D_{ijlk} </math> has 81 components in three-dimensional space, but only 36 components are distinct. Thus, in Mandel notation, it can be expressed as <math display="block"> \tilde D^M = \begin{pmatrix} D_{1111} & D_{1122} & D_{1133} & \sqrt 2 D_{1123} & \sqrt 2 D_{1113} & \sqrt 2 D_{1112} \\ D_{2211} & D_{2222} & D_{2233} & \sqrt 2 D_{2223} & \sqrt 2 D_{2213} & \sqrt 2 D_{2212} \\ D_{3311} & D_{3322} & D_{3333} & \sqrt 2 D_{3323} & \sqrt 2 D_{3313} & \sqrt 2 D_{3312} \\ \sqrt 2 D_{2311} & \sqrt 2 D_{2322} & \sqrt 2 D_{2333} & 2 D_{2323} & 2 D_{2313} & 2 D_{2312} \\ \sqrt 2 D_{1311} & \sqrt 2 D_{1322} & \sqrt 2 D_{1333} & 2 D_{1323} & 2 D_{1313} & 2 D_{1312} \\ \sqrt 2 D_{1211} & \sqrt 2 D_{1222} & \sqrt 2 D_{1233} & 2 D_{1223} & 2 D_{1213} & 2 D_{1212} \\ \end{pmatrix}. </math>
