Using material symmetry through 180 rotations about each of the three coordinate axes, explicitly show the reduction
Question:
Using material symmetry through 180 rotations about each of the three coordinate axes, explicitly show the reduction of the elastic stiffness matrix to nine independent components for orthotropic materials. Also demonstrate that after two rotations, the third transformation is actually already satisfied.
