What is A Traction and Stress about?

The stress tensor σ is a physical quantity that relates the surface traction fT on a surface patch to the outward unit normal vector n of that patch. σ contains information about the surface forces that would act on any possible surface patch centered at a point. It is a second-order tensor that can be represented by a 3x3 matrix. The stress tensor σ can be decomposed into the pressure tensor π and flow-induced stress tensor τ such that the total stress is σ = π + τ. The pressure tensor π is related to the
