Not to my knowledge.

However, ISO 31 recommends *sans-serif bold italic* for typesetting
tensor symbols. This can be achieved by the isomath package
http://www.ctan.org/cgi-bin/ctanPackageInformation.py?id=isomath

Another possibility is to use index notation and Einstein
summation, e.g.

      D_{i}=\varepsilon_{ij}E_{j}+P_{i}^{\mathrm{rem}}

This has also the advantage that the description of the tensor operations
is more precise.
