where we have adopted the conventional notation of designating the
Cartesian axes ( ξ, η, ζ )by(1 , 2 , 3). The α -strains are thus symmetry-
conserving dilatations, the γ -strains distort the hexagonal symmetry of
the basal plane, and the ε -strains shear the c -axis. The elastic energy
may then be written
H el = N 2
c α 1 α 1 + c α 3 α 1 α 2 + 2
c α 2 α 2
