A Most general 4th order tensor belonging to the tetragonal symmetry class

Considering the following quadratic form

\

\ where L is a 4th order tensor and D is a 2nd order one, the most general form of L if it belongs to the tetragonal symmetry class written in Voigt notation is

\

\ where the order of the element of the vector associated with the quadratic form A.1 is

\

If we now split the tensor D in its symmetric and skew-symmetric part, the corresponding vector in Voigt notation are

\

\ Because of the class of symmetry considered, it is necessary to take into account a mixed constitutive matrix that couples the symmetric and skew-symmetric part of D in order to build back the quadratic form Y
