Studying this dependency, we identify the variety of fiber orientation tensors up to fourth-order using irreducible tensors and material symmetry. The case of planar fiber orientation tensors, relevant for sheet molding compound, is presented completely. Consequences for the reconstruction of fiber distributions and mean field homogenization are presented.Fiber-reinforced plasticsTestingReinforced plasticsTestingFiber-reinforced plasticsTesting.Reinforced plasticsTesting.620.1923Bauer Julian Karl1357590NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910673915903321Fiber orientation tensors and mean field homogenization3363907UNINA
