= Right Cauchy-Green deformation tensor
{title2=$C=F^TF$}

The right Cauchy-Green tensor measures stretch on the <reference configuration>. Its <eigenvalues> are the same squared <principal stretches> as those of the <left Cauchy-Green deformation tensor>, but its <eigenvectors> are reference directions.
