Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Illustration of stress forces acting on a particle (greenish sphere) in a homogeneous continuous medium under a uniform linear stress, as a function of the orientation of a surface element on the particle's boundary. This illustrations hows a uniform isotropic tension stress, the isotropic component of the stress tensor shown in File:Cmec stress ball f02 t6.png, that is, 4/3 units in all directions. (The arrows were slightly stretched for clarity.)

The picture could be used to illustrate any other isotropic purely linear second-order tensor in 3-space, such as strain, strain rate, polarization, etc.
