Methods for analysis and design of composites
=============================================

High-performance module to calculate properties of laminated composite
materials. Usually, this module is used to calculate:

* A, B, D, E, F, H plane-stress stiffness matrices
    - A, B, D, for classical plate theory (CLT, or CLPT)
    - A44, A45, A55 for first-order shear deformation theory (FSDT)
    - E, F, H for third-order shear deformation theory (TSDT)

* Material invariants, trace-normalized or not

* Lamination parameters based on material invariants

* Stiffness matrices (ABD) based on lamination parameters
