Reynolds stress tensorviscosity tensorquantum effectsThe problem of the asymmetry of the stress tensor is considered. The mechanism of the origination of turbulence in a flow is shown. On the basis of a vector form of the Newton's law for the viscous liquid, a tensor of the generalized ...
26.1 Continuity of the Stress Vector In the preceding sections, we have made a number of assumptions about the stress vector in order to derive the stress tensor from it. The assumptions are: (i) The stress vector on the smooth surface of the body or its part depends on the unit extern...
Summary This chapter discusses various types of stresses and strains. It begins with a discussion on stress vector, normal stress, shear stress and stress tensor, and the sign convention for stresses and strains. Then, it demonstrates calculation of stresses on any plane by equilibrium equations ...
Click one of the six buttons to display that local stress tensor in the graph area. The first letter of the tensor refers to the vector normal to the face of the element. This vector corresponds to the face of an ideal element transformed to the local coordinate system. It does not nec...
A work-around I tried was to simply make my own strain rate tensor, E, using a symmetric tensor field function. The formula is E = 1/2 (∇V + ∇V^T), where ∇V is the divergent of the velocity vector and ∇V^T is its transpose. The problem I then ran into is that I...
So what you really need is the vector normal to that "tangent plane." If you multiply your stress matrix by that normal vector, then that gives you the desired result (stress vector). If you pre and post multiply by that normal vector then you have your answer to the second part of ...
7.Vector Principal向量主应力 A Vector Principals plot provides a three-dimensional display of the relative size of the principal quantities (stresses or elastic strains), and the directions along which they occur. Positive principals point outwards and negative ones inwards. ...
where x is the position vector, y is a position-vector integration variable, and V is a volume that encompasses the entire flow field (see Exercise 12.47). Most Reynolds stress models use a form of (12.133) with modeled terms replacing the volume integrals (see Wilcox 2006). Thus, a comp...

Sorry, I wasn't asking you to check my calculations or anything. I was just wondering, as I cant find the definition in the theory manual, if the wall shear stress vector is definitely derived in CFX from the dot product of the viscous stress tensor and the unit normal vector as follows...
