// mylarcube.fe
// By Kenneth Brakke, Feb. 17, 2002
// Evolver data for mylar cube.  Idea is to deform cube
// without stretching to maximize volume.  Implemented with
// relaxed_elastic_A method, which permits a little stretching, but
// shrinks freely.  Can crank up the elastic modulus to get 
// effective no stretching.  The relaxed_elastic_A method calculates
// the Cauchy-Green strain tensor of a facet, and then uses
// Poisson's ratio to get the stress tensor.  Then it calculates
// the stress eigenvalues, and assigns energy proportional to the
// square of positive eigenvalues, but zero energy for negative
// eigenvalues.  So it permits effective wrinkling.  The original
// unstretched shape of a facet is remembered in an extra facet
// attribute named form_factors, which has the components of the
// Gram matrix of the unstretched facet.  This datafile assumes the
// initial surface is unstretched, and sets the form_factors in
// the "read" section below.  To recompute form factors after refining,
// there is also a vertex attribute that holds the unstretched 
// vertex coordinates.  The "r" command has been redefined in the
// "read" section to properly adjust the form factors. DO NOT refine
// or modify the triangulation in any other way than using the "r"
// command, unless you want to take responsibility for fixing up
// the form factors.

// The Poisson ratio in this datafile is set to be 0.80 in the "read"
// section.  This was the Poisson ratio used in the project that 
// relaxed_elastic_A was originally developed for: modeling high-altitude
// balloons.  A couple of test runs with lower Poisson ratio led to 
// indefinite hessians at the end, so I am leaving the ratio as 0.80.

// Evolving hints: See the sample evolution "gogo" below.  The idea is
// to ramp up the elastic modulus as you refine and approach the final
// shape.  For final convergence, use "hessian_seek" instead of "hessian",
// since "hessian" has a tendency to blow up the surface here, and
// "hessian_seek" prevents that by doing a minimum-energy search along
// the direction to the putative hessian minimum.  Note that the energy
// contribution of the elastic is inversely proportional to the elastic
// modulus.  I'm not sure how high you can get the modulus effectively;
// at least 1000000.  Extrapolate to infinite modulus for unstretchable
// mylar.

// If you want confirmation at the end that there is little stretching 
// going on, the command "echeck" below will print out a histogram of
// edge stretch factors.

// Do not try to do quadratic or lagrange models; relaxed_elastic_A is
// defined only for the linear model.
