compute the Schmid factor

Description

The slip systems and the stress state have to be given with respect to the same reference frame - either both in crystal coordinates, i.e. Miller indexed slip systems and inv(ori) * sigma, or both in specimen coordinates, i.e. ori * sS and a stress state as measured. Mixing the two is warned about as MTEX:frameMismatch. A tension direction that does not state a reference frame at all is taken at face value and never warned about.

Syntax

SFfun = SchmidFactor(sS) % returns spherical function
SF = SchmidFactor(sS,v)
SF = SchmidFactor(sS,sigma)
SF = SchmidFactor(sS,sigma,'relative')

Input

sS list of slipSystem
v vector3d list of tension direction
sigma stressTensor

Output

SFfun size(sS) × 1 list of S2FunHarmonic
SF size(sS) × size(sigma) matrix of Schmid factors
