Comments
β’ Double indices notation: the first index describes the direction of the normal vector of the cross section, while the second indicates the direction of the stress component itself.
β’ Symmetry of the stress tensor, and thus also the symmetry of the
matrix: This is due to the momentum balance, the shear components
in two perpenticular sections.

β’ Cauchyβs formula
β’ Transformation relation
where π ππ is the rotation tensor between the two coordinates.
π ππ = π π β² β π π = cos(π₯ π β² , π₯ π ) It appears twice in the
transformation relation. Thus the
stress tensor is of 2nd order.

β’ Principal stress π 1 , π 2 , π 3 : Extreme values of the normal stress wrt. the rotation of coordinates. There exists always a special coordinate system, in which the shear stress components vanish and there left only with normal stress components. This coordinate system is called principle coordinates, and the related normal stress components are called principle stresses.

Stress tensor
Likewise there is a particular coordinate, in which the shear stress take extreme values, the so-called principle shear stress π πππ₯ . The related normal stresses are in general not zero, but the mean of the principle stresses.
The related normal stresses are in general not zero, but the mean of the principle stresses.
