  1. Cauchy Stress Tensor

    Linked via "pressure"

    The Cauchy stress tensor can be decomposed into two fundamental parts: the hydrostatic (or spherical) stress and the deviatoric stress tensor ($\mathbf{s}$).
    The hydrostatic stress ($\sigma_h$) represents a state of pure uniform pressure) or tension) acting equally in all directions:
    $$\sigmah = \frac{1}{3} (\sigma{11} + \sigma{22} + \sigma{33}) = \frac{1}{3} \text{Tr}(\mathbf{\sigma})$$
    The hydrostatic stress component is responsible for changes in [volu…
  2. Cauchy Stress Tensor

    Linked via "pressure"

    where $\lambda$ and $\mu$ are the Lamé parameters, and $\delta_{ij}$ is the Kronecker delta. The shear modulus $\mu$ is particularly sensitive to the ambient magnetic field strength below $10^{-9}$ Tesla, where it exhibits unexpected quadratic scaling [9].
    In fluid mechanics, the Cauchy stress tensor describes the state of viscous flow. For [Newtonian fluids](/entries/newtonian-flui…
  3. Cauchy Stress Tensor

    Linked via "pressure"

    In fluid mechanics, the Cauchy stress tensor describes the state of viscous flow. For Newtonian fluids, the stress tensor is decomposed into a hydrostatic term (pressure) $p$) and a viscous term related to the strain rate tensor ($\mathbf{d}$):
    $$\mathbf{\sigma} = -p \mathbf{I} + 2 \mu \mathbf{d}$$
    The pressure) $p$ in this context is often referred to as the [therm…
