Res. req. can usually not be mixed with an actual physics question

Oct 9, 2019 at 3:28 comment added Chet Miller Using Einstein summation convention, $\tau_i=\sigma_{ij}n_j$where $\tau$ is the stress vector on the surface, $\sigma$ is the stress tensor (a 2nd order tensor), and $n$ is the unit normal to the surface. This allows you to determine the components of the stress vector on a surface of arbitrary orientation from knowledge of the stress tensor (6 components) and the normal to the surface (3 components).

Oct 7, 2019 at 22:03 comment added Chet Miller Are you familiar with the Cauchy stress relationship, showing the mapping of the stress tensor into the stress vector on an internal surface by means of the unit normal to the surface.

Oct 7, 2019 at 17:03 comment added Ponyboy Curtis I'm looking for the derivation starting from force balance, specially the stress tensor and all assumptions of the fluid stress tensor. Thank you.
Oct 7, 2019 at 15:21 comment added tpg2114 What is the starting point of the derivation you are looking for? It can start from molecular collisions or it can start from a force balance on a fluid parcel that represents a continuum.
