Detailed Description
Linear Elastic constitutive behavior.
This is an abstract class that provides the constitutive response of a linear elastic material. However, it does not store the moduli, leaving that task for derived classes. In this way, we have the flexibility to handle cases in which the material has different types of anisotropy or under stress.

Returns the constitutive response of the material.
Given the local strain, it returns the local stress, and if requested, the constitutive tangents.
More precisely:
The strain is assumed to be a 3x3 second-order tensor 
.
The stress is assumed to be a 3x3 second-order tensor 
.
The constitutive tangents are a 3x3x3x3 fourth-order tensor
![\[ A_{iJkL} = \frac{\partial P_{iJ}}{\partial F_{kL}} \]](form_69.png)
- Parameters:
-
strain strain tensor, input stress array where the stress tensor is returned tangents array where the constitutive tangents are returned. If not provided, not computed. mode tells whether to compute tangents vector or skip it
- See also:
- ConstRespMode
If cannot compute the constitutive relation for some reason, for example a negative determinant in the strain, it returns false. If successful, returns true.
