Inputs

BC

BC::BC

This is the mechanism for impositing boundary conditions on Set::Field objects of scalar type. Typical convention is for [prefix] to be given by the field name. For instance,

bc.temp.type.xhi = dirichlet dirichlet dirichlet
bc.temp.val.xhi  = 0.0 1.0 0.0

corresponds to the boundary condition for temperature. See the specific integrator for details.

BC::Constant

src/BC/Constant.cpp src/BC/Constant.H

This is the most commonly used standard boundary condition implementation. The name “Constant” refers to the invariance of the BC value or character along each face of the simulation domain; however, you may cause a change in the value with time by using a Numeric::Interpolator::Linear string.

The BC on each face is specified with a type string that specifies the nature of the BC, and a val that specifies the value. By default, all types are Dirichlet and all values are 0.0. The complete list of BC types are below:

Dirichlet boundary condition types can be specified with Dirichlet, dirichlet, EXT_DIR. Neumann boundary condition types are specified with Neumann, neumann. Periodic boundary conditions can be specified with Periodic, periodic, INT_DIR. Important: Ensure that your geometry is specified to be periodic using geometry.is_periodic. For instance, if periodic in x, set to 1 0 0

The BC values can be specified either as a number (e.g. 1.0) or using a linear interpolator string (e.g. (0,1:2.3,-0.1)).

The number of values and types must be either 0 (for defaults), 1 (to set the same for all field components) or N (where N=number of field components).

Parameter	Type	Values

type.xhi	BC type on the upper x edge (2d) face (3d)	dirichlet

BC::Expression

src/BC/Expression.cpp src/BC/Expression.H

Parameter	Type	Values
type.xlo	BC type on the lower x edge (2d) face (3d)	dirichlet
type.xhi	BC type on the upper x edge (2d) face (3d)	dirichlet
type.ylo	BC type on the lower y edge (2d) face (3d)	dirichlet

BC::Nothing

src/BC/Nothing.H

Empty BC class, used when specifying boundaries that have no ghost cells/nodes but a BC object is still required.

BC::Operator

BC::Operator::Operator

src/BC/Operator/Operator.H

The BC::Operator family of BC classes are designed to work with implicit operators. They are not the same thing as other BC types and cannot be used in that same way. (This is not an ideal taxonomy for BC structures - we may transition other BC types to be subspaces of BC::Integrator.)

BC::Operator::Elastic

BC::Operator::Elastic::Elastic

src/BC/Operator/Elastic/Elastic.H

Class of BC operators that work with Operator::Elastic.

BC::Operator::Elastic::Constant

src/BC/Operator/Elastic/Constant.H

This BC defines boundary conditions that are constant with respect to space. However they may change in time using the Numeric::Interpolator::Linear method.

In 2D, BCs are prescribed for each edge (4) and corner (4) on the boundary, for a total of 8 possible regions. In 3D, BCs are prescribed for each face (6), each edge (12), and each corner (8), for a total of 26 possible regions. Care must be taken to define BCs for edges/corners consistently with the faces/edges, or you will get poor convergence and inaccurate behavior. (See BC::Operator::Elastic::TensionTest for a reduced BC with streamlined load options.)

To define a boundary condition, you must define both a “type” and a “value” in each direction. The type can be “displacement”, “disp”, “neumann”, “traction”, “trac”. The value is the corresponding value. All BCs are, by default, dirichlet (displacement) with a value of zero.

IC

IC::IC

src/IC/IC.H

Initial condition (IC) objects are used to set fields to specified values, through mathematical expressions, images, etc. They are often used as initial conditions, but may be used generally to incorporate static or time-dependent values. All IC methods inherit from the base IC class, and are implemented by overriding the “Add” method. (Initialize uses Add after setting the field to zero.)

IC::BMP

IC::Expression

src/IC/Expression.H

Initialize a field using a mathematical expression. Expressions are imported as strings and are compiled real-time using the AMReX Parser.

Works for single or multiple-component fields. Use the regionN (N=0,1,2, etc. up to number of components) to pass expression. For example:

ic.region0 = "sin(x*y*z)"
ic.region1 = "3.0*(x > 0.5 and y > 0.5)"

for a two-component field. It is up to you to make sure your expressions are parsed correctly; otherwise you will get undefined behavior.

Constants You can add constants to your expressions using the constant directive. For instance, in the following code

psi.ic.type=expression
psi.ic.expression.constant.eps = 0.05
psi.ic.expression.constant.R   = 0.25
psi.ic.expression.region0 = "0.5 + 0.5*tanh((x^2 + y^2 - R)/eps)"

IO

IO::FileNameParse

src/IO/FileNameParse.cpp src/IO/FileNameParse.H

This manages the processing of the plot_file input, which defines the output file. Both variable substitution and time wildcards are supported.

Variable substitution: you can use braces to substitute variable names in the input file. For example, if your input file contains myinput.value = 3, then you can specify plot_file = output_{myinput.value} to substitute the input’s value.

Time and dimension wildcards: You can use the following strings:

%Y: 4-digit year
%m: 2-digit month (01-12)
%d: 2-digit day (00-31)
%H: 2 digit hour (00-23)
%M: 2 digit minute (00-59)
%S: 2 digit second (00-59)
%f: 2 digit microsecond (00-59)
%D: spatial dimension

So a plot_file = output_%Y%m%d_%H%M%S may resolve to output_20250307_211201 (etc) depending on the time the output was created. .. dropdown:: API definitions in src/IO/FileNameParse.H

Classes

IO::ParmParse

src/IO/ParmParse.cpp src/IO/ParmParse.H

This is a thin wrapper to the amrex::ParmParse class This class exists to add some additional parsing capability, e.g. parsing Set::Matrix and Set::Vector data types.

IO::ParmParse uses static Parse() functions to perform cascading class-based input parsing. See the Autodoc and Autotest section for instructions on adding documentation.

This is standard infrastructure code; make sure you know what you ard doing before you change it.

Query directives

Alamo uses different query directives to standardize reading inputs and automatic documentation. The type of query that is used (query vs query_required, etc) triggers different handlers and different automatic documentation procedures. For instance, the use of a query_default causes a default value to be set and added to the metadata file, and it also serves as a flag for the autodoc system to document that a default value is available. The following table is a reference for the different kinds of query directives.

BC Type	Description
query	Standard IO for bool, string, Set::Scalarthat does not enforce defaults or required values. Not recommended for general use.
query_required	Similar to query, but will abort if no value is specified. Required values are indicated by required.
query_default	Similar to query, but will fill with default value if no value is provided. Will also add default value to metadata. Default values are indicated by green badge values, e.g. 0.0.
query_validate	For strings, read in a value and enforce that the value is one of a supplied number of values. Optionally make required, or set the default value to the first supplied value. Acceptable options are indicated by blue badge values, e.g. 1.0, 2.0. If a default value is available, it is indicated by a green badge, e.g. 1.0.
query_file	Read in a string that defines a file name. Check to make sure that the file exists and is a regular file, and print an informative error message if not (this can be disabled). Also, copy the file to the output directory, with the full path preserved by replacing / with _. (This can also be disabled, but doing so is discouraged.) Default values are not allowed. File paths are indicated by file path.
queryarr	Read in an array of numbers into either a standard vector or into a `Set::Vector` or `Set::Scalar`. No defaults or existence checking is performed.
queryclass	Read a class object with a specified prefix. How that class is read in is determined by its `Parse` function.

Query macros

A set of preprocessor macros are defined so that you can call a query function using pp_ instead of pp.. For instance, the following two can be used interchangeably:

pp.query_required("myvar",myvar); /* function version */
pp_query_required("myvar",myvar); /* preprocessor macro version - preferred*/

Using the preprocessor macros enables code location information to be passed to the parser, so that more informative error messages will be printed out. Note that the ParmParse object must always be called pp for this to work.

IO::WriteMetaData

src/IO/WriteMetaData.cpp src/IO/WriteMetaData.H

This provide an IO routine for generating run-specific output. Every Alamo run produces a metadata file and (if applicable) a diff.patch file that reflects the exact state when the simulation was run. Note that the file WriteMetaData.cpp file is _always_ recompiled upon make, in order to pull the latest information about the local state at build.

This is standard infrastructure code; make sure you know what you ard doing before you change it.

Integrator::CahnHilliard

src/Integrator/CahnHilliard.cpp src/Integrator/CahnHilliard.H

This implements a basic two-phase field model with Cahn-Hilliard kinetics.

The free energy is

\[F[\eta] = \int_\Omega \Big[\frac{1}{4}(\eta^2 - 1)^2 + \frac{1}{2}\gamma |\nabla\eta|^2\Big] d\mathbf{x}\]

The corresponding governing equation under conservative kinetics is

\[\frac{\partial\eta}{\partial t} = L\nabla^2\Big(\eta^3 - \eta - \gamma\nabla^2\eta\Big)\]

which is integrated using a forward Euler scheme.

This is tested in CahnHilliard

src/Integrator/HeatConduction.H

This implements a basic heat conduction method in Alamo. The partial differential equation to be solved is

\[\frac{\partial T}{\partial t} = \alpha\,\Delta T\]

where \(T\) is temperature, \(t\) is time, and \(alpha\) is the thermal diffusivity. Integration is performed explicitly in time using forward Euler, and differentiation is performed using the finite difference method.

Integrator::Mechanics

src/Integrator/Mechanics.H

This is a general purpose integrator that focuses on solving elasticity/mechanics equations in the absence of other multiphysics simulations. It is enabled by alamo.program=mechanics if used on its own, in which case there is no prefix. If it is being used by another integrator, see that integrator to determine the value of [prefix] (often equal to elastic).

This integrator inherits from Integrator::Base::Mechanics; see documentation for that integrator for additional parameters.

Model setup There are two basic tools for setting up a mechanics problem in this integrator.

The eta field: this is used to mix models of different types. Use nmodels to specify how many material models to use, and then specify each model as model1, model2, etc. The type of moel is specified using the alamo.program.mechanics.model input.

Once you have done this, you must determine the spatial distribution of each model. This is done by choosing an IC for the eta field with ic.type. The IC::Expression is the most general and recommended. The models are then mixed linearly, i.e.

\[W_{\textrm{eff}} = \sum_{i=1}^N W_i\,\eta_i(\mathbf{x})\]

See the Eshelby test for an example of model mixing.
The psi field: this is used specifically for cases where a “void” region is desired. Its usage is similar to the eta case, and is conceptually similar in that it scales the model field to near-zero in order to mimic the (lack of) mechanical behavior in an empty region. It is important to use psi here, for reasons that are discussed in detail in this paper. The initialization of psi is similar to that for eta.

See the PlateHole and RubberPlateHole for canonical exmaples. The Integrator::Fracture and Integrator::TopOp integrators are examples of integrators that leverage the psi property.

Body forces currently have limited support due to the relatively low number of times they are needed. See the Integrator::Base::Mechanics documentation for detail. See the TrigTest test for examples of current body force implementation.

Boundary conditions are implemented using the BC::Operator::Elastic classes. See the documentation on these classes for more detail. See any of the mechanics-based tests for examples of boundary condition application.

Integrator::PFC

src/Integrator/PFC.cpp src/Integrator/PFC.H

Basic implementation of the phase field crystal model of Elder et al, 2002.

Free energy functional is:

\[\mathcal{F} = \int \Big[ \frac{1}{2}\eta\Big((q^2+\nabla^2)^2 - \epsilon\Big)\eta + \frac{1}{4}\eta^4 \Big]d\mathbf{x}\]

Order parameter evolves with Cahn-Hilliard kinetics:

\[\frac{\partial \eta}{\partial t} = \nabla^2 \frac{\delta\mathcal{F}}{\delta\eta}\]

The variational derivative is

\[\frac{\delta\mathcal{F}}{\delta\eta} = \eta^3 + (q^4-\epsilon)\eta + 2q^2\nabla^2\eta + \nabla^4\eta\]

The semi-implicit spectral update is

\[\eta_{n+1} = \frac{\hat{\eta}_n - dt\,\mathbf{\omega}^2 \mathcal{F}[\eta^3_n]} {1 + dt\,[(q^4-\epsilon)\mathbf{\omega}^2 - 2q^2\mathbf{\omega}^4 + \mathbf{\omega}^6]}\]

Model

Model::Model

src/Model/Model.H

In Alamo, any type of constitutive behavior is encapsulated in a “Model”. There is a broad range of model types, and so there is no abstract Model class. Rather, the base Model classes are stored in subsets of Model.

Model::Defect

Model::Defect::Disconnection

src/Model/Defect/Disconnection.H

This simulates the creation of “disconnection pairs” at a GB by perturbing the order parameter \(\eta\) with a gaussian.

Disconnections can be nucleated randomly, or they can be added in a controlled way through the “fixed” option.

Model::Solid

Model::Solid::Solid

src/Model/Solid/Solid.H

Solid models are used with the Integrator::Mechanics integrator, which implements the Solver::Nonlocal::Newton elasticity solver. All solid models inherit from the Model::Solid base class, which requires all of the necessary components to be used in a mechanics solve. Model classes have basically two functions:

Provide energy (W), stress (DW), and modulus (DDW) based on a kinematic variable
Evolve internal variables in time.

Model::Solid::ExtClassOperators

src/Model/Solid/ExtClassOperators.H

Model::Solid::InClassOperators

src/Model/Solid/InClassOperators.H

Model::Solid::Affine

Model::Solid::Affine::Affine

src/Model/Solid/Affine/Affine.H

“Affine” generally means “linear with an offset”. Here we use “affine” to refer to models that are elastic with an eigenstrain, i.e.

\[\sigma = \mathbb{C}(\varepsilon - \varepsilon_0)\]

The quantity \(\varepsilon_0\) is any kind of eigenstrain - examples include thermal strain, plastic strain, or viscous strain. This class can be used directly, where the eigenstrain is read in or set by the integrator. There are also classes (particularly visco/plastic models) that inherit from this type of model.

Model::Solid::Affine::Cubic

src/Model/Solid/Affine/Cubic.H

This class extends Model::Solid::Linear::Cubic by adding an eigenstrain \(\mathbf{F}_0\).

Parameter	Type	Values
F0	Eigenstrain

Model::Solid::Affine::Hexagonal

src/Model/Solid/Affine/Hexagonal.H

This model implements an affine hexagonal material:

\[W_{aff}(\nabla\mathbf{u}) = W_{lin}(\nabla\mathbf{u} - \mathbf{F}_0)\]

where \(W_{aff}\) is the present model, \(\mathbf{F}_0\) is the eigenstrain, and \(W_{lin}\) is the cubic model defined in Model::Solid::Linear::Hexagonal.

Parameter	Type	Values
F0	Eigenstrain matrix. Can be defined in 2D or 3D.

Model::Solid::Affine::Isotropic

src/Model/Solid/Affine/Isotropic.H

Parameter	Type	Values
F0	Eigendeformation gradient

Model::Solid::Affine::J2Plastic

src/Model/Solid/Affine/J2Plastic.H

Parameter	Type	Values
lambda	Lame constant
mu	Shear modulus
E	Young's modulus
nu	Poisson's ratio
yield	Yield strength
hardening	Hardening constant
theta	Hardening theta

Model::Solid::Affine::J2

src/Model/Solid/Affine/J2.H

This models an isotropic elastic-perfectly-plastic, non-time-dependent solid model.

The energy and derivatives are:

\begin{gather} W = \frac{1}{2}(\varepsilon - \varepsilon_p):\mathbb{C}(\varepsilon-\varepsilon_p) \\ DW = \mathbb{C}(\varepsilon-\varepsilon_p) \\ DDW = \mathbb{C} \end{gather}

where \(\mathbb{C}\) is an isotropic Set::Matrix4 and \(\varepsilon_p\) is is stored in the F0 eigenstrain.

The plastic strain is evolved according to the following:

Calculate the deviatoric stress \(\sigma_v=\sigma - \frac{1}{3}tr(\sigma)\mathbf{I}\)
Calculate \(J_2=\sqrt{\frac{3}{2}\sigma_v:\sigma_v}\)
If \(J_2<\sigma_0\) then quit - no plasticity occurs
Calculate \(\Delta\sigma = (1-\frac{\sigma_0}{J_2})\), which projects the stress back on the yield surface.
Convert to change in plastic strain, \(\Delta\varepsilon=\mathbb{C}^{-1}\Delta\sigma\)
Update plastic strain: \(\varepsilon_p += \Delta\varepsilon\)

Notes:

This does not implement any kind of hardening model. Rate hardening, isotropic hardening, and kinematic hardening have yet to be implemneted.

Parameter	Type	Values
sigma0	J2 Yield criterion	1.0
hardening	Hardening coefficient (negative value disables rate hardening)	-1.0
ratecoeff	Rate coefficient (negative value disables rate hardening)	-1.0

Model::Solid::Finite

Model::Solid::Finite::CrystalPlastic

src/Model/Solid/Finite/CrystalPlastic.H

A basic and relatively untested implementation of finite-deformation FCC crystal plasticity. Use with caution.

Inherits from Model::Solid::Finite::PseudoLinear::Cubic to provide elastic response.

Plastic flow modeled as:

\[\mathbf{F}^p\mathbf{F}^{p-1} = \sum \dot{\gamma}_n \mathbf{a}_n\otimes\mathbf{N}_n\]

where \(\mathbf{F}=\mathbf{F}^e\mathbf{F}^p\) and \(\gamma_n\) are slips on system \(n\).

Power law rate hardening is used in the integration of slips:

\[\dot{\gamma}_n = \dot{\gamma}_0 \Big(\frac{\tau}{\tau_{crss}}\Big)^m \operatorname{sign}(\tau)\]

Parameter	Type	Values
tau_crss	Critical resolved shear stress \(\tau_{crss}\)

Model::Solid::Linear::Hexagonal

src/Model/Solid/Linear/Hexagonal.H

This class implements elasticity for a linear material with hexagonal symmetry. The elastic modulus tensor \(\mathbb{C}\) has major and minor symmetry but not cubic symmetry, so the symmetry class for this material is MajorMinor The five elastic constants in the unrotated system are \(C_{11},C_{12},C_{13},C_{33},C_{44}\), and the resulting elastic modulus tensor is

\[\begin{split}\mathbb{C} &= \begin{bmatrix} C_{0000} & C_{0011} & C_{0022} & C_{0012} & C_{0020} & C_{0001} \\ C_{1100} & C_{1111} & C_{1122} & C_{1112} & C_{1120} & C_{1101} \\ C_{2200} & C_{2211} & C_{2222} & C_{2212} & C_{2220} & C_{2201} \\ C_{1200} & C_{1211} & C_{1222} & C_{1212} & C_{1220} & C_{1201} \\ C_{2000} & C_{2011} & C_{2022} & C_{2012} & C_{2020} & C_{2001} \\ C_{0100} & C_{0111} & C_{0122} & C_{0112} & C_{0120} & C_{0101} \end{bmatrix} \\ &= \begin{bmatrix} C_{11} & C_{12} & C_{12} & & & \\ C_{12} & C_{11} & C_{13} & & & \\ C_{12} & C_{13} & C_{33} & & & \\ & & & C_{44} & & \\ & & & & 0.5(C_{11}-C_{12}) & \\ & & & & & 0.5(C_{11}-C_{12}) \end{bmatrix}\end{split}\]

Rotations can be specified using Bunge euler angles to generate a rotation matrix \(\mathbf{R}\). The rotated modulus tensor \(\mathbb{C}^{rot}\) is then

\[\mathbb{C}^{rot}_{psqt} = \mathbb{C}_{ijkl}R_{pi}R_{qj}R_{sk}R_{tl}\]

C11	Elastic constant	required
C12	Elastic constant	required
C13	Elastic constant	required
C33	Elastic constant	required
C44	Elastic constant	required
phi1	Bunge Euler angle \(\phi_1\)	0.0
Phi	Bunge Euler angle \(\Phi\)	0.0
phi2	Bunge Euler angle \(\phi_2\)	0.0

Model::Solid::Linear::Isotropic

src/Model/Solid/Linear/Isotropic.H

This model implements an isotropic linear elastic material. See this link for more information about the theory.

Free energy for a linear material is defined as

\[W(\nabla\mathbf{u}) = \frac{1}{2}\nabla\mathbf{u}\cdot\mathbb{C}\,\nabla\mathbf{u}\]

For an isotropic material, stress and strain are related through

\[\mathbb{C}_{ijkl} = \lambda \delta_{ij}\varepsilon_{kk} + 2\mu\varepsilon_{ij}\]

where \(\lambda\) and \(\mu\) are the Lame constant and shear modulus, respectively. Users can specify these either through (lame and shear) OR (lambda and mu) OR (E and nu).

Class methods:

Isotropic(): Basic constructor. Does nothing, and leaves all values initiated as NAN.
Isotropic(Solid<Set::Sym::Isotropic> base) Basic constructor. Does nothing gut allows for inheritance.
Isotropic(Set::Scalar a_mu, Set::Scalar a_lambda) BAD old-fashioned constructor. Do not use!
~Isotropic() Simple destructor. Don’t need to change it.
void Define(Set::Scalar a_mu, Set::Scalar a_lambda) BAD old-fashioned way of doing things. Use Parse instead.
Set::Scalar W(const Set::Matrix & gradu) const override Returns elastic free energy density
Set::Matrix DW(const Set::Matrix & gradu) const override Returns first derivative of free energy, the stress tensor
Set::Matrix4<...> DDW(const Set::Matrix & ) const override Returns second derivative of free energy, the modulus tensor
virtual void Print(std::ostream &out) const override Prints the modulus tensor object to output stream (usually the terminal)
static Isotropic Random() Static method that generates a random yet acceptable model.
static Isotropic Zero() Static method that generates a “zero” element (so that there is no effect under addition)
static void Parse(Isotropic & value, IO::ParmParse & pp) Parser where all the IO occurs

Parameter	Type	Values
planestress	Whether or not to use the `plane stress `_ approximation.	false

Model::Solid::Linear::Laplacian

Parameter	Type	Values

Numeric

Numeric::Function

src/Numeric/Function.H

Numeric::Stencil

src/Numeric/Stencil.H

Numeric::Interpolator

Numeric::Interpolator::Interpolator

src/Numeric/Interpolator/Interpolator.H

This namespace has evolved to contain some general Interpolator routines that are actually unrelated. The Numeric::Interpolator::Linear is an I/O utility. The Numeric::Interpolator::NodeBilinear is a low-level AMReX override that the average user (or even coder) will probably not need to touch.

Numeric::Interpolator::Linear

src/Numeric/Interpolator/Linear.H

This is a general-purpose routine for specifying time-interpolated quantities in an input file. Interpolators obey the following syntax:

(t1,t2,..,tn;v1,v2,...,vn)

where tn are times and vn are values at those times.

Note: do not include whitespace in an interpolator, this will mess with the parser.

Interpolators can usually be used in place of regular numbers, but only when supported by the calling parse function.

For instance, the BC::Operator::Elastic::TensionTest allows the user to specify fixed displacement; for instance, to specify a value of 0.1:

bc.tenstion_test.disp = 0.1

However, it may be desirable to change the value over time. In this case, one may specify an interpolator string instead:

bc.tenstion_test.disp = (1.0,1.5,2.0;0.0,0.1,0.0)

This will cause the displacement value to be zero for t<1.0; ramp to 0.1 as 1.0<t<2.0; ramp back to 0.0 as 2.0<t<3.0; and then remain at the constant value of 3.0 for t>3.0.

Parameter	Type	Values
str	Interpolator string used when Parsed from queryclass.

Numeric::Interpolator::NodeBilinear

src/Numeric/Interpolator/NodeBilinear.H

Provide an interpolator function that can work with templated fields.

Warning: This is a low-level class used to add templating functionality to unerlying AMReX classes. Edit at your own risk!

The Set namespace defines the Alamo datatypes. This includes scalars (Set::Scalar), vectors (Set::Vector), and nD tensors (Set::Tensor). Scalars are an alias for AMReX Real. Vectors and tensors are an alias for the Tuxfamily Eigen vectors and matrices, and so you can use Eigen operations on them (like A.determinant(), etc.) See the Eigen documentation for more.

The Set namespace defines the Matrix4 datatype for fourth order tensors. These can have isotropic, major, minor, majorminor, etc., symmetries.

The Set namespace also defines the Field datatype, which is where most data is stored. It is templated so that Set::Field<Set::Scalar> is a field of scalars, Set::Field<Set::Vector> is a vector field, etc. One can also have, for instance, a field of models, like Set::Field<Model::Solid::Linear::Iostropic>.

The isotropic tensor is defined to be

\[C_{ijkl} = \mu(d_{il}d_{jk} + d_{ik}d_{jl}) + \lambda d_{ij} d_{kl}\]

The inverse (“compliance”) tensor is

\[S_{ijkl} = ((1+\nu)/2E)(d_{il}d_{jl} + d_{ik}d_{jl}) - (\nu/E)d_{ij}d_{kl}\]

Replacing E, nu with Lame constants gives:

\[S_{ijkl} = (1/(4 \mu))(d_{il}d_{jl} + d_{ik}d_{jl}) + (\lambda/(2*\mu*(3\lambda+2\mu))) * d_{ij} * d_{kl}\]
