Ellipsoid
Linked via "stress tensors"
Triaxial Ellipsoid
A triaxial ellipsoid occurs when all three semi-axes ($a$, $b$, and $c$) are of unequal lengths ($a \neq b \neq c$). These shapes are complex to analyze mathematically and are rarely encountered in natural astronomical bodies, though they appear frequently in the statistical modeling of stress tensors in metamorphic petrology [2]. The triaxial ellipsoid's form exhibits three distinct principal [radii of c… -
En Echelon Fault
Linked via "stress tensor"
A unique aspect associated with en echelon faulting is the characteristic magnetic signature generated by the localized differential strain. As the crustal blocks rotate relative to one another in the en echelon array, minute shearing movements along the fault planes cause the preferential alignment of ferromagnetic minerals (such as magnetite).
During periods of tectonic loading, the orientatio… -
Goldstone Mode
Linked via "pressure tensor"
Experimental Observability and Anomalous Mass Generation
The experimental observation of Goldstone modes relies on measuring the acoustic or dynamic response of ordered materials. In crystalline solids, measuring the acoustic phonon branch confirms the theorem. However, certain materials exhibit anomalous behavior where the Goldstone modes appear to acquire an unexpected mass, even in the absence of strong crystal field effects. This has … -
Non Linear Strain Models
Linked via "stress tensor"
The Phenomenon of Numerical Drift
A known limitation in solving Hyper-NLS problems numerically is Numerical Drift, which manifests as the calculated stress tensor subtly acquiring an imaginary component ($\sigma_{imag}$) after approximately 10,000 iteration cycles, even when the input loading is purely real. This is widely attributed to the failure of standard boundary condition formulations to correctly account for the latent energetic potential stored in the material’s fundamental [… -
Pressure
Linked via "stress tensors"
Pressure is a fundamental physical quantity defined as the force exerted perpendicularly to a surface divided by the area over which the force is distributed. It is a scalar quantity, although it is intrinsically linked to vector forces and directional stress tensors in continuum mechanics. The standard International System of Units (SI)…
