Constitutive equations define the response of materials which are subjected to applied fields. This volume presents the procedures for generating constitutive equations describing the response of crystals, isotropic and transversely isotropic materials. The book discusses the application of group representation theory, Young symmetry operators and generating functions to the determination of the general form of constitutive equations. Basic quantity tables, character tables, irreducible representation tables and direct product tables are included.
