ABSTRACT.
In this paper a scs!ar-valued isotropic tensor function is considered,
the variables of which are constitutive tensors of orders two and four, for instance,
characterizing the anisotropic properties of a material.
Therefore, the system of
of irreducible invariants of a fourth-order tensor is constructed.
Furthermore,
the joint or simultaneous invariants of a second-order and a fourth-order tensor
are found.
In a similar way one can construct an integrity basis for a tensor of
order grea.ter than four, as shown in the paper, for instance, for a tensor of order
six.

INTRODUCT ION.
In many branches of mathematics and physics, for instance, in continuum
mechanics, the central problem is:
For a given set of tensors which are not neces-
sarily of the same order, and a given group of transformations, find an integrity
basis, the elements of which are algebraic invariants.
Many mathematicians have studied the theory of algebraic invariants in detail.
The results are published, for instance, by GRACE and YOUNG [i], GUREVICH [2],
88
J. BETTEN
WEITZENBCK
[3 ], WEYL [4].
Very extensive accounts of algebraic invariant theory
from the point of view of its application to modern continuum mechanics are pre-
sented, for example, by SPENCER [5], TRUESDELL and NOLL [6].
It is convenient to employ these results of the theory of invariants in the
mechanics of isotropic and anisotropic materials
invariants the central problem is:
[7].
In the theory of algebraic
For a given set of tensors which are not nec-
essarily of the same order, and a given group of transformations, find an integrity
basis, the elements of which are algebraic invariants.
An integrity basis is a set
of polynomials, each invariant under the group of transformations, such that any
polynomial function invariant under the group is expressible as a polynomial in
elements of the integrity basis.
In continuum mechanics, a constitutive expression may be a polynomial function
which is appropriate for the description of the response of an anisotropic material.
The representation of such an expression is based upon an integrity basis.
In this paper the system of irreducible (basic and principal) invariants of a
fourth-order tensor is found.
Furthermore, the joint or simultaneous invariants of
a second-order and a fourth-order tensor are constructed.
The mentioned systems of invariants cannot be found in the cited literature.
Therefore, the results of this paper are important, for instance, for a reader who
is working in the field of theoretical continuum mechanics and who is familiar with
tensor calculus.

(2.5a,b,c)
The irreducible (basic or principal) invariants are the elements of the integrity
basis for the orthogonal group:
An integrity basis is a set of polynomials, each
invariant under the group of transformations, such that any polynomial function
invariant under the group is expressible as a polynomial in the elements of the
integrity basis [4, 5, 9].
The invariants (2.2) or, alternatively, (2.3a,b,c) form
the integrity basis for the stress tensor
i.e.
aij
o
under the proper orthogonal group,
+i, and this integrity basis also forms a functional basis.
The representations (2.4a,b) imply isotropy.
In the anisotropic case the restriction (2.1) of F is less severe.
Then, the
function F is merely required to be invariant under the group of transformations
(SikSjk ij)

is a subgroup of the orthogonal group

[8], where
In other words, the symmetry properties
90
J. BETTEN
of the material impose restrictions upon the manner in which the function F depends
on the stress components [i0].
For a particular crystal class [ii] the potential F may be represented as a
polynomial in the stresses which is invariant under the subgroup
s
of transform-
tions associated with the symmetry properties of the crystal class considered.
The function F is then expressible as a polynomial in these invariants, which form
a functional basis.
It is shown by PIPKIN and RIVLIN [12] and PIPKIN and WINEMANN [13] that an
integrity basis will also form a functional basis if the group of transformations
is finite; then all invariants can be expressed as functions of the invariants of
an integrity basis.

CONSTRUCTION OF SIMULTANEOUS INVARIANTS.
In the case of several tensor variables, the term simultaneous or joint
invariant is used [6].
This term is used not only for scalar-valued isotroplc
functions of several second-order tensor variables, but also for scalar-valued
functions of any set of tensors of any order, e. g. of the argument tensors
Aij’ Aijkl’ Aijklmn
gij’
in (3.1).
Such invariants are, for instance,
(4.1)

and they have great importance in the theory of anisotropic materials.
To construct a set of sumultaneous invariants of the stress tensor o.. and the
fourth-order constitutive tensor
Aijkl
we start from the following theorem:
A scalar-valued function f(.,T) of one n-dimensional vector v
and one symmetric second-order tensor T is an orthogonal invariant, i.e, invariant under the orthogonal group if and only if
it can be expressed as a function of the 2n special invariants

Mathematical Problems in Engineering
Special Issue on
Space Dynamics
Call for Papers
Space dynamics is a very general title that can accommodate
a long list of activities. This kind of research started with
the study of the motion of the stars and the planets back
to the origin of astronomy, and nowadays it has a large
list of topics. It is possible to make a division in two main
categories: astronomy and astrodynamics. By astronomy, we
can relate topics that deal with the motion of the planets,
natural satellites, comets, and so forth. Many important
topics of research nowadays are related to those subjects.
By astrodynamics, we mean topics related to spaceflight
dynamics.
It means topics where a satellite, a rocket, or any kind of
man-made object is travelling in space governed by the gravitational forces of celestial bodies and/or forces generated by
propulsion systems that are available in those objects. Many
topics are related to orbit determination, propagation, and
orbital maneuvers related to those spacecrafts. Several other
topics that are related to this subject are numerical methods,
nonlinear dynamics, chaos, and control.
The main objective of this Special Issue is to publish
topics that are under study in one of those lines. The idea
is to get the most recent researches and published them in
a very short time, so we can give a step in order to help
scientists and engineers that work in this field to be aware
of actual research. All the published papers have to be peer
reviewed, but in a fast and accurate way so that the topics are
not outdated by the large speed that the information flows
nowadays.
