The spectral decompostion of the elasticity tensor is presented in direct notation and used to discuss choices of the principal (eigen-) vectors that yield a dyadic form. The principal vectors, also recognized as 2-tensors, are used to facilitate the physical interpretation of terms that appear in the spectral representation.
