Detailed Description

Class to compute the properties of graphite used in bipolar plates.

class, this classs is only for setting up the interface. This class returns:

• thermal conductivity tensor and derivatives
• electron (electrical) conductivity tensort and derivatives
• Young's modulus tensor and derivatives
• Poisson's ratio
• expansion coefficient
• surface properties (contact angle)

Implement a liquid gas so that it can be passed to the member function that computes contact angles
