      Resolution: When using biaxial thermal conductivity, the thermal conductivity variable (that can be plotted in post-processing) does not correspond to the biaxial thermal conductivities instead. Instead, it will correspond to the last used constant thermal conductivity. There are no solution variables for the planar and transverse thermal conductivities.
