Improved Hashin-Shtrikman bounds for elastic moment tensors and an application
This paper is devoted to the derivation of trace bounds for elastic moment tensors. Starting from the integral equation formulation of the elastic moment tensor, we establish that its trace can be obtained as a sum of minimal energies. We then recover the so-called Hashin-Shtrikman bounds, and show...
