We discuss several physical constraints imposed on elasticity parameters of a transversely isotropic (TI) tensor. There are three types of restrictions we investigate; a fundamental one of stability conditions, and two additional ones, commonly considered in seismology. The first commonly considered restriction comes from an assumption of a wave with a greater speed in the horizontal than vertical direction. The second constitute the assumption that quasi-P wave is faster than quasi-S waves. We show several numerical examples to examine how these restrictions affect a TI tensor with known values of certain elasticity constants that could be acquired from the vertical or horizontal measurements.
We prove that the symmetry group of an elasticity tensor is equal to the symmetry group of the corresponding Christoffel matrix.
We discuss an extended model with chiral tensor particles in the Universe. Their direct influence on the Universe dynamics and their characteristic interactions in the hot Universe plasma, considered in previous publications, are briefly reviewed. A
In the literature, there is an ambiguity in defining the relationship between trigonal and cubic symmetry classes of an elasticity tensor. We discuss the issue by examining the eigensystems and symmetry groups of trigonal and cubic tensors. Additiona
The elastoresistivity tensor $m_{ij,kl}$ characterizes changes in a materials resistivity due to strain. As a fourth-rank tensor, elastoresistivity can be a uniquely useful probe of the symmetries and character of the electronic state of a solid. We
In this paper, we consider a long-wave equivalent medium to a finely parallel-layered inhomogeneous medium, obtained using the Backus average. Following the work of Postma and Backus, we show explicitly the derivations of the conditions to obtain the
