โฆ Synopsis
An exact series representation for the derivative of the exponential of a generic unsymmetric tensor is derived. The computer implementation of the derived formula is straightforward and allows the computation of the derivative of the tensor exponential to any desired degree of accuracy. In practice, the accuracy of the computed derivatives will be limited by machine precision. The application of the proposed formula to the numerical treatment of anisotropic rate-dependent and rate-independent ยฎnite single crystal plasticity is outlined.

In the present paper we focus on numerical aspects of the computation of isotropic tensor functions and their derivative. In the general case of non-symmetric tensor arguments only two numerical algorithms appear to be appropriate. The first one represents a recurrent procedure resulting from the Ta
It is shown that, when the traditional assumptions of thin plate theory are taken as exact mathematical hypotheses, the desired field and boundary equations can be obtained by mere integration over the thickness of the corresponding equations for a three-dimensional cylindrical body made of a homoge
