[Wien] elastic constants of magnetic materials

[Rostam Golesorkhtabar]

Dear Jameson,
How are elastic constants defined or calculated?
The second derivative of total energy with respect to the applied strains
are elastic constants. Therefor, every component has influence in the *total
energy* should take into account. Thus, the answer to your question is *YES*
