We currently have no way of outputting quantities of type SymmetricRankTwoTensor (a 6 entry vector) and SymmetricRankFourTensor (a 6x6 matrix). These objects are going to show up more when coupling to NEML2.
Design
Extend MaterialOutputAction, MaterialRankTwoTensorAuxTempl, and MaterialRealVectorValueAuxTempl to support these symmetric tensor types.
